Driving home on the crowded highway
I watch the flashing brake lights
Sirens singing on my right
Tires squealing on my left
Roaring engines all around me
A symphony of metal and asphalt
Calling me to keep my hands on the wheel
Telling me to keep my foot on the gas
I dig my toes into the pedals
On the off chance I can master the speeds
Never letting up and setting my mind free.
