For Yesterday

NPM #4

This one is based on a real experience I had yesterday while driving to a homie's house to carpool. Luckily, there was no accident. I managed to keep my eyes on the road and let my peripheral take in the majesty.

"Lightning"

It's hard to focus on the road.
Every several seconds there's a flutter of light,
and my eyes dart
off the streets and all across the skies
looking for the finger
that's playing with the switch.
