Road Rage

suggests a piece based on
A DRIVING LESSON


I hope this gentleman learned his lesson!

ROAD RAGE

Sonny, driving rather fast, down a country lane,
Sees a car approaching; treats it with disdain.
Doesn't dream of pulling over, though there's not much space;
For drivers such as Sonny driving is a race.
Nita, who's the other driver, winds her window down;
As she's passing yells a greeting, accompanied by a frown.
'Pig!' she shouts out very loudly! (Well, I'd shout it too;
When you meet a lousy driver what else can you do?)
He responds with some expletives, one of which is 'Bitch!'
Then, round the corner, he meets the pig


 And ends up in the ditch!

Enjoyed that. Always best to control your emotions when driving more than you control the car.
