Traffic Jamming


We call them the Wheeler family
Follow their trailer full of wheeled possessions
Toy trucks, bikes, coolers, and tubs
Back into town
 
Usually we whiz right by here
Now we can see everything
Including the wings on a lady bug
A joke, but it’s true
 
Hot pink poppies
In the golden brush
Signs: Step in
Taste our Zin
DINER, Biscuits and Gravy
CLOSED
 
A rusty garden
Of metal sculptures
A real garden
Trucks, tractors stand
In their oxidized frames
Of another generation
 
At the Vineyard Hotel
Swimming pool
Nobody swims
And the little magnolia tree
Blooms big and white
At it’s center
 
Up ahead
White Suburban
Leaves big gap in line
The nerve
Of some people
 
Cherry stands
Make us hunger for dinner
The Boon Fly Café
Has the best sign
OPEN
