Wintery Car Travel (1-15-06)

Nothing but open space in the distance
Driving my car down the road
The sky appeared to be grey in this lonely place
I turned on the tunes in my car and sang along

For how long this ride seemed
I'll never forgot the memories of the feeling
Of the simple relaxation
And a satisfaction
from the communications of the world

The snow was bad to travel
Every half mile or so
Slow cars approaching me
Passing them in stress
I felt nervous recovering from my conscious
Because I almost hit head on
Not to very fond from my attitude

I finally reached towards the gymnasium
Parked cars scattered everywhere
The village nestled in the cold bleak world
Where the crows rested on the power lines
I looked at the crows closely
Thinking how they felt from the bitter wind
Because it seemed to last for several months
in this unforgiving lands

end

  • who are you, if you don't mind me asking...?

    i like this piece, observational, simple yet grabbing, and very real in its feel.

    any clues as to where this journey occurred...?
    change begins with discontent.
  • i`m a 20 year old college student from northern michigan univeristy located by marquette michigan, lake superior. i would be surpise if anyone in this blog knows where its at. probably one of the most isolated spots in the united states. long winters i am used to it. the journey occured while driving towards cow country village where i attended a basketball league. 37 miles for the travel. i played about between 20-24 songs in my car. sounds exciting. i just listen to the music and observe the landscape. kinda like a story or something. i remember singing along with footsteps by pearl jam and passing a car that was going slow. good tune. the beat reminds me from temple of a dog "times of trouble" another awesome song to sing along too. i definelty had trouble riding in the icy snow covered roads which my car lost grip. oh well. that pretty much sums it up velvet I site
