Those Who Wore Their Twisted Cars Poem by Clive Culverhouse

Those Who Wore Their Twisted Cars

Rating: 5.0

my blood was pouring into him
while his blood stuck
my feet to the floor

a floor vibrating over wheels
screeching corners with road signs
flickering lights, shouting back at us

how we disturbed sleep
this night of every night
this shift of every shift

there's something about
metal and bone
how artistic, exquisite,

we shared our mettle
and our blood back then
my ambulance was theirs too

The highway is a meat grinder and J. G. Ballard was its prophet.
