For we'll drive!

slapdashmonuments

Inspiration hits with a flash, stories written on the go. A rumble of laughter and the tale is heard only in echoes. The wind blows me in a new direction. Whom shall I visit next?


Across all surfaces, we swarm

Like plagues of locusts, causing harm

We move so rapidly, alive

Spirits of speed, ah! For we'll drive

And no one knows, not even I

What destination fills our eye

Erupting from communal hive

On tires of fire, for we'll drive!

Come one, come all, come! Hither come!

Fly ever faster, as I strum

And urge you hurry! Quick! Arrive

In force, my darlings, for we'll drive!

I am wondering if anyone has "listened" to this poem's title and "heard" it as quite another phrase...
