“Dirt in the Road”


Want to go for a ride?
Hide your fears inside
As the truck starts to slide towards a tree!
Don’t yell at me!
I was only going ninety!
See, we’re OK!
We’re not hurt!
The truck just hit a little patch of dirt in the road.
It had nothing to do with speed
Or weed
Or booze!
I’ll never lose control!
I’ll never die!

Cheer up!
