Use your turn signals, **** it.
Keep your speed close to the limit.
Use your side mirrors.
Come to a full stop at stop signs.
Pull over and sleep when you’re tired.

You’ve got a map;
you know how to follow the red highways
between here and there.
You know where you want to go;
but all those other fools on the road
don’t have a clue,
may not even see you.
Just use your turn signals, **** it.

That’s enough advice; you know the rest--
how to light up your eyes when you laugh,
how to keep an open mind,
open hands,
an open heart.
Be honest with yourself.
Use your turn signals, **** it.
