Driving
there isn’t much to it
driving along the curving roads
staring out at the
massive green hills
listening to the music
while the hot sun
blinding us in every
turn
but at least
we’re not at home
thinking about tomorrow
with bills that can’t be paid
and for a moment
we are free things
upon white hot pavement

there is both an anxiety and a serenity to this, but i cant decide which is the surface and which one is riding beneath. well done.
Those “bills that can’t be paid” pop up like a traffic sign. Add a nice tension to this and a counterpoint to the freedom of just driving.
