Reduced Speed Ahead
By Raud Kennedy
____________________
His bottle of e.d. pills rolls across the dash
as they speed through the turn
in his new red Porsche.
His heavy 'girlfriend' has frosted hair
instead of gray.
Middle age is a washed out memory
in the rear view mirror
as the Grim Reaper
leans over the backs of their seats
and glances at their speed.
