black eyeliner crusts on the corners of my lips
catapulting through my despair

idle cars are the
devil’s playdate
smiling dumbly at sellout radio
unclever plugstrafficupdatesworthless banter
courtesy of unclear channel
how hard they laugh
how soft they talk
no hints to be taken
no nerve
more than their sum
useless
topless
drafting my radar detector
between cone zones and consciousness

outside of
foot pressing on the accelerator
and the edge of the cliff

everything
is beyond control

awesome! you always surprise me with your words, the way they develop never comes in any way I expect. Should I have an elated feeling at the end of this? ;) Like your style.
