Pitfall : Poetry - LA Traffic Love Story browse

Playing highway games,
Thanks to O. S. Card.

Fast shifting through lanes,
Moving around the safe.

Stopping short of a crash,
Accelerating back to speed.

Making turns on two tires,
Hear the screech of the wheels.

Almost hit that kid,
He’ll be fine in a week.

Get out of my way,
Fucking cross the street.

It’s amazing I’m alive,
With all the risks I take.

But I know one thing’s true,
I am going to make it on time.

Oh surly I will,
Because I’m an asshole.

Its just a big fat race,
Competiting for time.

Going from here to there,
Transporting me and some air.

I wanna get there first,
I have no reason why.

I know these street so well,
Got it all planned out.

Taking bets on which side,
Is gonna move up first.

I’ll do anything to advance,
A little bit in line.

Trying to bait the bus,
To get in front of you.

Trying to slow you down,
I wanna control your life.

I can go faster than you,
Your nothing to me.

I have the skills,
The will,
And the lack of common sense.

Even if I die in a horrible way,
I’ll still get there first.
