Zoom
Sharp edged clarity focusing fluidity
Like a tiger through the jungle brush
Upon the asphalt through the network
Of flashing lights and raised bumpy relief
At 130 kilometers per hour
Wending through the twisting veins
Of sprawling metropolis
One with sky, road, and automobile
Palm lined silhouettes
Beneath a waxing moon
And rolling California hills
Bathed in manic velocity
A rapture of speed induced joy
Driving consciousness, the tiger within
Prowls the concrete jungle
Stephen R. DeVoy
