Just Along For the Ride!

Just Along For the Ride!

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

The motion-sickness blues!

"

Used to go for a drive just for fun

 

Loved to try to get myself lost

 

Now those driving days are done

 

Now days I pay way too high of a cost

 

Talking 'Zuke City' dead ahead!

 

I now have to depend

 

On others to drive where angels fear to tread

 

Too fast on the brake, too quick an unseen stop, and I fend

 

Off the dizzies, or at least try

 

There's nothing like the feeling of impending doom

 

All the while, I'm wondering 'why?'

 

I never used to get car sick, now I live in gloom

 

and terror at the very notion

 

Of having to go somewhere; leaving the house

 

I absolutely live in fear of, and hate, motion

 

Sickness; now it falls to my mom cause the ain't a spouse

 

What the hell is a druther, anyway?  Anyone got

 

Any ideas?  Oh, never mind!

 

I feel like I'm caught

 

Unless there's some way not to be sick, that I can't find!

Try to comprise all your needs into one trip that you can take weekly. Don't do something that obviously makes you uncomfortable.
