Driving a Car is Not
June 4, 2015
Easy
That’s what they say it will be
Second nature
Maybe I missed first?
Like driving a bike
Because hitting a pedestrian is a bigger deal
Long awaited freedom
Threats of being locked up is quite the opposite
The wind whipping in your hair
It’s just a lot of fumes
Passage to adulthood
I’m pretty sure I’ll still be eighteen on June the sixth
A skill of mine

Not very poetic, but this is one of several pieces of writing done to get out frustration at my failure to learn to drive.
