What Sin?

By heinzs

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

What Sin? For what unholy sin did Heaven create the punishment of commuting? What blaspheme did I commit to warrant this cruel retribution? Interminably trapped in traffic's strangle hold twice each day. On days that I must drive I am a nervous wreck for several hours. Commuting on the bus twice daily traps me with a demonic driver. Angels hear me - I repent! This daily torture you have sent, please relent! 11/1/2001 Written February 4th, 2002 © on Feb 04 2002 04:06 AM PST, Heinz Scheuenstuhl    0 • 10
