Highway at Night

by Eric Bernhartsen




        Rivers of lights  
        That travel on by
        Changing red and white
        Under a pitch black sky

        They slowly digress
        And have somewhere to be
        To embark and congest
        And to crowd busily

        These lights carry cars
        These cars carry people
        These people carry dreams
        These people carry feelings

        There are vehicles of anger
        Vehicles of frustation
        Vehicles of pain and argumentaion

        Vehicles of contentment
        Vehicles that are kind
        Those that are happy
        Just waiting to unwind

        The inside of vehicles
        Is the same anywhere
        An engine, motor, brakes
        And a tire that's spare

        The inside of people
        Is far more advanced
        The things that drive it
        Are complicated and vast

      There's no way of knowing
      What or who the cargo is
      For we all are just passengers
      Minding our own business

     They are all indivuals
     With diverse personality
     But we are just vehicles  
     As far as the eye can see.
