unfortunately every word is true!! Driving, in some areas anyway, has become a kind of war - no-one uses indicators anymore - at least not until they have started to turn.
Their cars are really 'weaponized'. Like the language too.
What about using their horns - devilish! Great work.

In the UK we pay an annual tax to keep a car on the road. Newer, less polluting cars have cheaper tax, mine is no tax because it is also small and less emissions.
no - my head and hats don't get on....

As I write I (as a technophobe) recognise that this message may not reach likers - or even commentators! Please could you let me know if you do receive it?
Thanks again.

I see that truth. I have a 15 month old grandson. My first grandchild. I see me, I see my son, I see so many family members when I look in his sweet eyes. Your poem
choked me up a bit but in a good way.

Such a great observation of how some twats choose to drive.
I see this every day - I potter to work in my little 1000cc, no road tax car, sticking at 60mh and nearly always catch up with the speeders as we hit the run of lights.
Nice one!

Don, writing comes so naturally even your comments are poetry! ??

"My daughter tells me not to
Eat when I am writing
Cos I could risk a spill-out
No food in mouth for biting
This spill-out food could land on page
(Or keyboard if you're typing)
The page it could be remedied
But keyboard? Hell, what griping....?"

Yeah I took a big breath before I hit the submit button Taylor.
I actually wrote it for me. I can be pretty tough on my Beau if he pushes too far.
I generally am easy going...let it flow but I have this Irish side that goes blind at times. Push my buttons too many times and back up Mr.
I am keeping this to help me take a breath and think about what I am about to say when he is knowingly or unknowingly pushing my buttons. ugh?

Sounds like a poem I have prepped for my next book ?. Maybe I'll send it to you in the coming days. . .
As for this, it reminded me of "Pan's Labyrinth" by Guillermo del Toro, a masterpiece of a film. If you haven't seen it, you should - along with "The Shape of Water", a beautiful one as well. What is it about your poems that remind me of films so much???
Whatever it is, it works.?

Comment is about a stain to never fade (blog)
Original item by Stuart Buck
A pertinent post about social distrust and financial
inequality. But there has always been the failure of
politicians to solve the latter situation...certainly easier
said than done anyway in a world in which we harbour no
resentment towards those in sport/entertainment taking
grotesque sums of money, even after tax. Envy instead
turns in other directions and that breeds unrest because
there are always going to be people who are better off or
with better opportunities. It has always been so.
If you're going to rise
First - rise above the lies.

Speeding towards an early grave!

I totally agree, I was only discussing earlier with a radio presenter, the fact that we can mature in all sorts of different ways as we get older, and have much more to offer. Thanks both.

Loved this - really funny, but also clever - liked the descriptions - stealthy weasel - cunning and baleful shrew.Can thinks of several Italian TV 'celebs' who show off their rudimentary knacks, only those on the telly. POTW standard.
