The road and the story

 he swerves and narrates
accelerates and breaks
extends the story until ovetime
makes us believe in unseen crime

Set the piece for arguements 
and tense ticker contention
humidity conspires
storms steal our attention

he swerves some more
breaks unnecessarily
then puts his foot to the floor
in the middle of an analogy

The city light moves clarity into the night sky
far off sunsets that never were
Aimless drivers seek them for comfort
through the overstoried drizzle

passengers feel coming into the car
