the evening commute
right at sunset
I pulled off next to you
to watch the earth move
the sun fall
the cars creep and crawl
along highway 82
to return at dawn
do these drivers ever stop
on their creep and crawl?
it is not our destiny —
we found the roadside dream
the company we keep
when it’s you and me
together in eternity
