Slide sideways

by Eric   Jan 28, 2018


Pop the drift bar, clutch, and tap the gas
Drop it into 3rd gear so the slide will last
Balance acceleration momentum and weight
Going sideways is another way of driving straight

Through a busy intersection you might glide
You might make it but some tried and died
Will you let adrinaline to drive this way make you forget
The loved ones of others lives are you risking to hit

I’ve lost a lot of friends that have come and gone to be alone
Have you some that never come back to this earthy home
Another reason to make sure your whip is tuned
Hit the nos sauce without shifting right you could be ruined

    I really liked this. You will probably hate me saying this but it reminded me of the Fast and Furious franchise with the need for speed. I am a great lover of fast cars and racing road cars lol (not that I have personally raced road cars) but unfortunately cannot drive anymore. A powerful write with a strong message and enjoyable read to boot.

      Sometimes my mind drifts in a thought and I enjoy a scene there so I express it in a poem. It’s so fun making a poem
