Now located on a street far away
driving to get everywhere
*
From the driver’s seat
We can see the future
*
The past is in the rear view mirror
*
We see many different scenes
from the passenger window
*
There is an entire world
in each second
and every minute
*
In each pocket of time
we can find a totally new view
Such vast meaning can be found
in these small segments of life
*
One day
splash through puddles on the road
The very next
the sun creates
a wavy mirage
above the pavement on the hill
*
Warmth is expressed in colours
At night we have street lights
Around the clock we flourish
We love to travel
Love to chill
It is normal to progress through colours in our vision
Through yards and trees
we see the green
From green to yellow
Caution is free
Orange and red
Stops us ahead
past the day the sun shies away
Blue turns to
Purple and then to black
The moon and the stars
will guide us back
where each day
takes us far
The lights on the road
above and of cars
*
Destinations like tomorrow
and within the next hours
Traffic flows with a purpose
Each vehicle has their own cause
Together alive
Our breath shows up as steam on the glass that we are looking through
*
Our world is now
Our world is here
Out world is sometimes
situated in a dangerous place
*
We are obligated to engage in this space
and to
concentrate on keeping up with the pace
We try to
articulate feelings in a very clear way
Do all that we can do
to create a better day
*
Rocks on the road
launch at the windshield
right in front of our face
From the tires
of the truck that is directly ahead
*
it seems that
the road has a taste
*
We will never eat it
but we have to free it
And search the glass
for a chip or a crack
*
Surely we know
each driver’s case
When they need never look back
They may not know their effect
It is not their fault
That’s a fact
It’s the conditions
the environment
Now we look through
and hope for no more attacks
There is no damage to view
*
Safe and sound
coming around
if we are lucky
and cruise through fine
Stand up for what we believe
Use our brains
and have a spine
*
I am so easy-going
Unless emotions are
overflowing
