18-wheeler

The truck ahead
full of artificial burden
carries the label of
oversize load

Inanimate
unaware of the world's troubles
its mechanical heart
unable to withhold feeling

Dependent on the driver
for direction and care
a guide
until the mission is complete

Dodging obstacles and collisions it will soon reach
its final destination
burden tossed aside and forgotten


The author's comments:
I hope people will see that the truck represents us humans and how we depend on God, the driver for everything. Without the driver, the truck is a lifeless piece of machinery.
