traffic jam


When I am stuck in traffic jam hours together,
After tried left right and centre.
Positioned in rightmost side of the road
blocking the opposite side completely.

Wonderful dark, persistent rains, mud outside.
Want to relieve, but it is door to door bumper to bumper.

Hungry, thirsty and sweaty,
Angry, tired and exhausted.

Late for dinner, meeting or party
May miss plane or train.

Blame it on cop, road or driver in other car.
But save me as I am in real hurry.

I cant wait a minute.
I drive on opposite lane when a stuck up for a moment  .
I block other side.
My brothers on opposite side do same for me.
We happily spent rest of night on road.
We blame everybody sans ourselves.

Don’t cut lane, though police don’t punish you
Because cars are in hundreds and cops are in ones and twos
You don’t want to loose a second
But end up wasting hours.
Don’t count the fuel, smoke and noise.
