Posted by Maureen Glaude on 10/24/04 at 12:11 AM well, sometimes you're allowed to go through yellow, but not speeding! And now you could get your photo taken going through reds! This was fun, and unnerving for the passenger, obviously, until his turn. Good poem. |
Posted by Ashok Sharda on 10/24/04 at 02:13 AM Yes, one feels safe with brake under one's foot.How about the other occupying the adjacent passenger seat? Well, the only psychological remedy ( and mind it, tried and tested)is to INTEND PARADOXICALLY, that is, to imagine all kind of accident situations in a humorous way. haahah The sarcastic expression at the end enlivens this piece. |

dash and deep hollows in a floor board when riding
as a passenger. Fun poem Chris...Charlie |
Posted by David R Spellman on 10/31/04 at 01:24 PM Brings to mind many times sitting with some or another erratic driver, clutching the dash and putting my foot on an imaginary brake that I so strongly wished was there on my side of the car. Like how you turn it at the end - what goes around, comes around and paybacks are a... well, great job with this. Thanks for the ride! |
