What do you think this poem is about?

Joyriding

She goes with her new lover.
An unpopular actor
in a red colored racing car.
On the way the police halted them
as it's a stolen car.
The girl still feels it's a movie
until they are taken for custody.

    Enjoyed the 'reality check' in this one Nimal, an experience we all have eventually.... regardless of the activity.

    Colorful imagery in this one. These two joyriders are definately headed for a crash
    The dream has ended and reality has begun. Very original.Nimal.

    Regards,

    Sandra
