highway survivor
there are no lawyers here
so there is no one
to call or point fingers at
I’m just sitting here on the
highway’s shoulder
figuring out my next move
I see everything at once
and without even trying
I’m getting quite used to it
the wreck across the way
is mine but it’s been
five or ten or fifty years ago
sure seems like yesterday
I keep thinking maybe one day
I might branch out
and try my hand at haunting
august two thousand thirteen
