The Car Ride

A Poem

By M. LeePublished 7 years ago 1 min read

windows down

hair flapping high

my right arm escapes

confinement

to dance

with the swirling gale

when i was a child

my hand was a boat

rolling along

the crests of waves

a bird

swooping low for food

during its long flight

a porpoise

chasing

teams of silvery fish

an angry giant

stumbling over

tiny ant people

with its canoe sized feet

but i’m older now

and i know better

i know

that my hand

is simply an

off roading jeep

a graceful skier

skimming the slopes

a shooting star

grazing a galaxy

a ufo

lost in a wormhole

where nothing else

and everything else

exists

surreal poetry
