Curves


Curves

I get taken in
by the curve.
Force myself
to slow down
as I approach.
Make that natural lean
as I follow the arc.
Begin to accelerate,
careful not to cross the line.
Find myself back on
the mundane straightway
and search for signs
of the next curve.

No Stopping Us


No Stopping Us

We are blind to
the big red sign.
Some slow down
to a crawl.
Some don't cut
speed at all,
just glance both
ways and keep going.
Be alert. Two ways
or four ways, we're
all coming through.

This poem was inspired by a Wednesday prompt on Robert Lee Brewer's Poetic Asides blog. The prompt was "alert."
