It's late into the night
and I'm going
DUI
of depression.
The lights of the city
blind me every time
I turn onto
a new road.
Slamming my brakes
for the deer
that's not there.
And swerving
for a
nonexistent
pedestrian.
Green, red, yellow, white-
They all blend into
starts and stops
until I'm going
by my own
rules.
After the third
near rear-ending
I go home
blindly.
