What else would you have me do?

I’ve spent too

Much 

Time 

Sitting still

I almost didn’t drive

Back to my house

Get on the freeway

In the wrong direction

Drive until I have to 

Stop for gas

Sip my afternoon coffee

A rare thing

And make my way through

Cities

And maybe I would 

Stop

At your house too

Even if 

You’re not home

Just to say

Hi

Drive on

Consume a

Bag of licorice

Not too fast

These ones are

Decent

And if I make it to 

The edge

Of whatever bubble I

Live in

Maybe I would be shocked

But I think I would just

Keep driving

Because 

What else would you have me do?
