I want to write, but how do I start?
The guy in the back says: ‘’Go!’’
When I hit on the gas the whole engine halts;
so maybe I should have gone slow.
.
Restart
Restart
Come-on start over.
.
There’s a flaw in the flow somewhere.
I stand in the way of a great forward motion
(the guy in the back doesn’t care.)
.
Perhaps what I need is something new fangle,
but all of the new stuff, I don’t like.
The guy in the back, right now I could strangle!
when he says:
‘You know, you might like a bike.’
.
It’s the view from the back I should like to distangle,
for I’ve always hated Hindsight.
