a not-so-pretty sight in steinbeck country - enablers lyrics

so the door of this car meditating at 80 opens
lurching like a rocket’s first flames, it soon stiffens against the wind
feet swing out, an absurdity so obvious it can’t be helped, certainly not this man
nor the abrupt memories of any number of stupidities ever committed in a life** those mute, insufferable tyrants that put you here in the first place
simply to drive, think things through

you can almost thank him when in no time at all the feet lower
do the mashed potato in quickening flops and slashes across the whirring highway
enough torque there to catapult the body into a panorama of ancient trees and van gogh yellows
these otherwise serene hills of steinbeck country caught by a certain off*off*and*away whirlybird man
tricked by its own risible devices once the corpse sobers the effect in a roadside ditch
a coiling of limbs and prey to the gawking faces lit up in the swiveling lights

and the car
don’t ever forget the car veering casually eastward
some eerie jetsam cast into the limned green expanse of alfalfa
ghost*driving under the deep faceless tombs of hulking field jockeys
there to bid travelers a fine welcome to salinas, 101 south
