trying to calm down after the drive
as I hear the rain prance onto the roof of my car
I feel calmer
I just had a horrific thirty minute drive in the rain
the cars ahead of me kept stopping suddenly on the Interstate
my map application worked beautifully at home
It spoke the directions, all seemed kosher
But this app refused to speak in the car
I had to keep lifting it up and looking at the route
while I was driving
I listen to the rain, trying to calm down.
I am here
and I think I am still alive
