Observation of Drivers.

Observation of Drivers.

A Poem by Onlyme

The retired corporate boss in his very
expensive car. Driving along
the road. Thinking oh, everyone is
looking at my motorcar?

Flashy b*****d. I am thinking as he
drives past. LOL

And the boy racer. In his Subaru
Impreza he treats this car,
as though it is his lover and soul mates.
God, I think he
masturbates over this car.
In his dreams at night.
Joking or am I.

The four by four drive.
Normally a Mercedes M class.
Flash, black and big.
Loves themselves to bits.
Tinted windows and maybe
have the odd child in the
back seat.

Oh, how they hated having the kids.
But defiant they were not getting
rid of the flash motor after they were born.
As it's his.


The classic car driver. Mint condition,
cool and smooth looking rides.
They are normally old guys.
Trying to still
look fashionable and stylish.
Like Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear.

Even though well past its era
and time frame for
that model they are sitting in now.

Student ride. Sometimes an old banger
Other times Vauxwagan golf. Like out of
chit bang bang movie.

laden up with loads of students inside.
Music blasting and having a laugh.
As they drive past.

The poor white van driver fucked off and
fed up. With the long hours and
hard work of wheeling and dealing.

The bus drivers and delivery drivers.
As well as taxi drivers and heavy good
vehicles.
Just wishing for this day to end.
Stuck in traffic, red lights and crazy drivers all
around them.
And people just step off the kerb
to cross the road. At not the designated
proper spot to do.

Outwith the dreaded speed cameras
watching you everywhere.
Just waiting for you to make a mistake.

Oh, the joys of driving.

I agree with J. The true self comes out in the way a person drives . . . If the 3rd stanza is true . . . then he probably spends a lot of time in the car wash!! Thanks Dawn (our resident culture watcher) for a witty, yet appropriate poem.

oh yes, we surely can tell a lot about personalities by the cars they drive...the reflection...
we drive what we are....i really chuckled at the third stanza, thinking about how true that actually is...
entertaining and enlightening.
