Oh how those twin glows are abused

Ignorant of all earthly laws when used

Ironically lit but not terribly bright

When a finger flips the hazards light

Amazon or Doordash will get my therapy bill

All for the silly orange lights on their grill 


So next time you see a driver activate

their hazards which make John irate

flip them the bird and honk the horn 

giving idiotic drivers justified scorn

It is waking up at 5:30am in order to pray my morning...
