Inspired by Original-Dante’s “Clarity

*

He lived behind the wheel,

DISTURBINGLY

familiar with the rules of the road

Knew them better than anyone

Anxious to break them

To find ways around them,

YES HE WAS

always in a hurry

Fixated on green lights

Speedbump-less streets

Nothing could slow him down

Flashing red lights

Ignored.

Yield signs

Ignored.

His passenger’s fears

Ignored.

For them there would be no

Change of heart

Changed mind.

What was once a “yes”

Now a “no”
