always picking, never choosing
shift into 5th and give it some gas
hurrying forward as fence posts pass
the timing off; the engine is missing
instead of purring it's loudly hissing
no time now to have the motor checked
it's probably just a little dust fleck
forgetting the map so you use the stars
like Galileo they will take you far
luminosity only works at night
using the sun when it's daylight
your car is packed as you look for what you need
seeking fire and a some sweet release
mountains loom, you are finally getting close
on this new path you hope leads you home
