those red eyes, move steady toward me
night chases the morning on headlight streams
& bitter miles left to go the bitter miles between me
where I am meant to be in traffic hours ago
a dry cough into empty water bottle neck
soon by the side of the road inked in red Both doors closed
I'll lose the lead I've built up the dam will break
those red eyes, move steady, fading away
