Ten Driving Poems 10. Roundabout

Around town, the two roundabouts
like circus rings, provide amusement.
It's a dance to the tune of flashing
indicators, take your turn now, left
or straight through the hoop, a ring
of fire if you misjudge distance
or intent. The rhythm of life
the rhythm of purpose
the rhythm of going
stopping, going.
Taking Mum
shopping.
