Drive
Big black shiny cars, longer and sleeker
than my big black shiny 50 chevy coupe
with its silver push-button starter
a discovery machine whose bright headlights
penetrate the gloom beyond its leopard-print seat covers
as other cars tear screaming, howling down the road
like angry mindless wolverines
throwing gravel and free of ministers, professors
accountants and specters looming over the pavement of life
Cars pour into night like time flowing down dark tunnels
In big black shining cars all the long needless night
young men not needing to know where they are going
