Down The Highway Poem by Theresa Haffner

Down The Highway

Rating: 5.0


down the highway
nocturnal vista
setting off the night time
in dots of red and white light
and patches of black
along the curve of the interstate

lunar gray concrete
nodules of hemoglobin
psychedelic pearls on a necklace
of mountains and highways

interstate lights on the off ramp
spins the synaptic neurotransmission
raw holes in the forest
of cartoon emotions
makes for a fine feeling
along the nightmarish
front row of double values
ambiguities of the cruelest
kind
pencil insensitive
cartoon drawing crosshatching
dynamics of night and time

more spokes for the wheel
now is the ideographic
inclination
hope you are having fun
with your friends
drinking
and staying out all night

metered diamond lane
zig zag
motorist contrived
refuel
nightmare exhaust wind
images of night
gone mad

interstate multifaceted high contrast
dot matrix resolution
silver studded motorcycle stallion
midnight chimes the
red and white child psychotic

neon dream web menagerie
visions of orisons
and dream hit medications

avenue highway interstate 94

i like some of these images you have have woven. nocturnal vista. nodules of hemoglobin. synaptic neurotransmission. ideographic inclination. visions of orisons. however, it is all too contrived & very disenfranchising. care, sjg
