Road signs in Maryland warn, “Drive sober” –
they say to do it “or get pulled over.”
Drinkers who think it will not show,
if they let up and drove real slow,
get told, when stopped, they were drifting all over.

Drive sober, or it’s all over
Road signs in Maryland warn, “Drive sober” –
they say to do it “or get pulled over.”
Drinkers who think it will not show,
if they let up and drove real slow,
get told, when stopped, they were drifting all over.

Goines On: Pregnant with possibility
[Author’s Note: Allusions in this vignette to other Goines vignettes are not acknowledged. My intention is that the vignettes, artfully collected and arranged, might someday be published as a book, a sort of “portrait in a thousand strokes.”]
The sky ahead of Goines was vast and cloudless as he merged onto the freeway to go to an ophthalmology appointment. He felt strong, he felt good, enjoying the sky, the feeling. He felt as though there were many possibilities for him out there in that expanse of world and time, and though he knew he wouldn’t, he wanted to live forever.
