Freeway

I'd like to let my beat up Datsun drift 

from this slow lane doing just fifty-five,

over the bumpity-bumps between lanes,

and make an impression on a Porsche.

The insurance I've never claimed could buy

a premium face to face contempt scene

with a hotshot, blow dried, three piecer,

who, "came from nowhere, all of the sudden".

He'd get us started with- "what the hell..."
I'd counter with, "man, it's only a car..."
I'd get a bang out of it!  Long ago

I learned this old truck gets me home just fine.
