put it in drive…

i was going south on the 5 leaving from work
the traffic wasn’t as bad at this time
but i still see people swerving left and right
like madmen thinking the sun is going to set forever
…
flashing brake lights
speeding sport bikes
it’s the switch you turn on because it’s night
…
from there
i got into the fast lane in two and a half seconds
where things were a blur from a morphine dream
i hit 80
then 90
and then…
i opened my eyes and i was still in the parking lot.
i closed my eyes earlier for just ten lasting seconds
since i wasn’t ready to go home yet
…
the engine running
the radio off
car still in park
and the longest yawn
…ever
to get to the weekend
all i have to do…
is to put in drive
