There
She was
A dream come
True

Immersed
In
Her two favorite
Hues

On
Route 66
All pink and
Blue

Taking
In
The scenic
View

Where headed
Next
She had no
Clue

Compelled
To
Pay the road its
Due

Path

Neither slow
Nor
Fast

Drawn into
The
Gold

Its magic
Taking
Hold

Oblivious
To

Unable to
Turn
Round

Merging
Into
Fall

Barely there
At
All

I’ve had enough
Leave me
Alone

I’m weary
Worn out to the
Bone

I won’t respond to
Text or
Phone

So lose
Your snide, critical
Tone

Hibernation skills
I plan to
Hone

Ignore
My snorts and raspy
Groans

I’ve had enough
Leave me
Alone
