Lurking Madness

Lurking behind sunglasses
Shadowed in black hair
Framing her tan face
In tan Maxima or Camry?

Why think
Center turn lane
A good place
To pull out into and
Stop
Halfway through her
Left turn out
From apartment complex?

Why think
Nothing
Should concern her
In front of her car
While she was stopped
Waiting
Waiting
Looking over her right shoulder
Waiting
For traffic to clear
At noon on Greenville Boulevard?

Why her sudden start
acceleration
wild swing
sudden stop
does she start
discovering a large blue object
inches in front of her car
she's
struck dumb
or dumber?

Turning left
onto Emerson
where's Waldo?
Let's Ralph.
