In the wee hours of the morning on the interstate
Lost on the highway of pre-dawn blackness
Playing pinball poker with lane hogging pickups
Dizzy in the shuffle of tailgating tail lights
Heading for boredom


Passed in the night by a pony tailed pupa
Bopping to the rhythm of steel belted radials
Wrapped in the cover of her Cadillac cocoon
Heading for stardom


Stirred from the slumber of lead footed limbo
Breaking through the jumble of neon commotion
Called by the glow of a full service rest stop
Heading for off-ramp


Drawn to the glare of a get-n-go morning
Parking in the shadow of a still smoking caddy
Looking through the mist over Styrofoam coffee
Met by the gaze from a pony tailed princess
Heading for sunrise
