Three Shots in Thirty-Seven Seconds
In October,
My 2004 Honda
traveled 3000 miles
in less than 85 hours.
I was returning
from New York
to Long Beach.
Since that time,
the same vehicle
has been driven
no further than
three miles from
home to Starbucks.
The journey always
commences before
sunrise when the
hot house java
is at its tastiest.
Scenery is scenery
wherever it is seen
while my co-pilot
is soundly asleep
on the opposite
coast, dreaming
about California.
The yellow lines
are the same on
both coasts.

Saffron's sister out at night
Guiding the horizontal bungee
Back to his shell to be alone.
I don't know what to say
DeleteI've never been called a
horizontal bungee
before but vertical bungees
give me vertigo.
