Red Mist and Green Tomatoes

Red mist fell on me, shuttered down
click clack snick snack
the little dark car behind me
hooty tooty hoity toity
finger upflying
just because
I was waiting in the sun for the man on the bike
to pass
but the arse behind me
couldn't see him and would have
slipstreamed him anyway
seeing as his boy brain
thought his one hand speed steam
down the village high
was brakeless sacred
I'm all
rightitude
He was bumper sniffing me then to the roundabout
where he overtook doing the ton
and then had to flow slow in traffic anyway
sad chad
I engine revved in my taller car
gated his tail
well raged
remembering
Kathy Bates in a bate
" I'm older, got more insurance"
