Drive To PrisonA Poem by {A}shley {B}lack @-;-A poem about giving chaseDrive To Prison Music is thumping, drink is flowing having a great night out See this girl staring at me Checking me out no doubt A couple of friends are getting in trouble Doorman breaking up the fights And once again we are kicked out of a club Another end to one of my nights Waiting outside the kebab shop The girl walks past and winks I have the audacity to ask for her number At least see what she thinks But as I leave to chase her My friend grabs the neck of my shirt “I hope your not ditching me mate All for a piece of skirt” I promised to drive him home I shouldn’t have had so much to drink But as the evening rolled on I lost the ability to think “Well we need to offer her a ride” I said to my friend His bloodshot eyes stare at me His thinking starts to decend We walk to my car, he trips on the floor Pulls himself up by pulling on the door We take our seats and start to give chase To the girl that gave me a wink I’ll offer her A nice ride home I wonder what she’ll think We see her walking alone I speed up to get near My mate grabs the wheel “hey let me steer” The girl turns in shock As she hears screeching from the tyres I try to pry my friends fingers But they are attached like welded wires An oncoming car has to swerve to avoid our full beam light The girl is hit by the oncoming car And I witness the nightmarish sight The body bounced off the ground I could hear the CRACK As several bones were broken My friends arms finally slack “we need to help that girl mate” But all I could see were bars Prison is where I would be heading And I don’t see no other cars So I drove away the girl that winked is dead My friend shot himself from the images in his head The other driver is in prison For the murder that I caused But there is no guilt on my mind I barely even paused © 2011 {A}shley {B}lack @-;-Author's Note
