look out the window
the world speeds by
kayakers in a river
trees in bloom
sky dark
with 10 am
clouds
everything moves faster
then your eyes
can keep
up
a whining baby in an SUV
toxic chemicals in a tanker truck
the suicidal everyman
slink comfortably
in the front seat
of a beige sedan
looking out the window
is all you can do
as the world speeds by you
and you only stand
still

everything moves faster
then your eyes

the suicidal everyman
slink comfortably
in the front seat
of a beige sedan
looking out the window
is all you can do
as the world speeds by you
and you only stand
still
