The Lam

The white stripes

on the ground beside me blend together,

one endless line.


The faces I meet,

with seemingly blank expressions,

give a brief glance as I speed past.


I shudder,


it happens upon me,

this may be the last time

I navigate this highway.

A journey I never thought I’d endure.


Hours ago I was standing

after finishing the grim reaper’s job.

It happened so suddenly,


the second degree.


Arising this morning,

I couldn’t foresee myself going 80 on Route 66.


But a grim expedition awaits.
