PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

There’s no key in the ignition,

But we’re determined to hotwire

This car, even if we should

Know better.



In our defense, we’ve got plenty

Of sparks to start up this engine.



Why should we fight it?



Plus, we’ve got more than enough

Fuel in the gas tank to last us

All night.



Suddenly, we’re stuck in the heat

Of the moment.



No turning back now.



We’ve got no other choice,

So we to put the pedal to the medal.



We only hope, once it’s over,

We can pretend like it never happened.



For now, we’ll just breathe in

These toxic fumes because

We’re convinced we know

What’s best for us.



You see, we keep playing these games

Until we get caught

(And we always will).
