Ode to the Eisenhower Expressway
This Caravan
of slow moving vans is
really getting out of hand
The drivers, being only man,
each surely does the best he can
but
fifteen miles under speed

you and co. have formed blockades across the whole
four lane highway
Sure in a city every path 's a beaten one,
