I would choose the passenger’s seat over the driver’s any day.
You can lean out the open window and feel the breeze.
If the car is going fast enough, you can see the layers of clouds move.
You can follow the line of the electric wires.
Then the moon peeks out and surprises you.

Reach to the sky and feel your arm become cold.
Feel your face chill, but do not care.

Close your eyes.

Now you can feel everything.
The wind smashing against your skin.
Hair hitting your forehead and cheeks.
The viscosity of the air.

Now you can hear everything.
You can actually hear the scream of the breeze.
You can hear the other cars that exist.

Now you can smell everything.
It smells like water and dust.

Now you can listen to everything.
Listen to the music coming from the radio.
Listen to the driver not saying a word.

When the car stops, you almost wish it had not.

I never want to be too embarrassed to do this. Or too old.

I took this picture of Domenica a really long time ago. I was inspired to write this and knew the picture would fit.

This is an incredible poem!

I like your poetry style. You take the things that most people just don't notice and turn them into the most important things in the world. Excellent!

Thank you. I just write things I think about. You are right, though. I hadn't noticed that pattern before.

I need to learn to drive. I feel like a jerk for not being able to drive.

Haha. That's okay. I'm going to make you drive me around for a year and a half after you learn to make up how long I've driven you around.
