A Picnic, Surely

Contemplation No. 6, Nov. 23, 2011

I've been watching the cars and 
I've figured out the pattern. 
Every car that drives up the street 
Needs a car to drive down the street. 
It's a fair exchange.

Sometimes it happens at the same time
The cars trade brief glances and 
Continue on their way. 
But sometimes it takes a while. 
Sometimes a car will drive up the street 
With no sign of the other car. 
But sure enough 
If one has the patience to wait for it 
That other car will come 
Driving down the street.
