| America by Car by Lee Friedlander |
Herrmetically sealed soccer moms
reading the latest Danielle Steele
Chauffeurs in Crocs
clogging school bus lanes
dropping off
picking up charges
Taxi drivers
(You talkin' to me?)
(No one's talking to you, Mom!)
ferrying their freight
dance class
karate
mall
another mom's car
wherever, just
~ Drive ~
We used to have drive
before
we became the drivers
to others
Driven
by the needs of others
driven
to distraction
by interruptions from others
driven
crazy
by believing others
who told us
we could have it all
