Summer of RoadtripsA Poem by LanaThe summer of roadtrips Are my favorite things Because I get to see the sun rising, shining and leaving me With a beautiful doomed heavy feeling that I feel under my skin On the side of the road, as I sit down under a tree And it is scorching hot still It is the feeling that the sun was here And it was beating and beating And anywhere you go for a seat It burns, you could cook an egg for the next morning The wheat in the field tickle my leg And the yellow light turned amber The crickets create a song written by the Gods In the heavens above that tickle your soul and want to tell you That you shall be free of yourself this evening The glass of ego shall shatter The start of this decade was tough How many more punches can one get? Before we start coughing blood? But when I'm in the middle of nowhere In the roadtrips of sunflowers Painted by a Dutch painter I imagine myself in a fever dream This can't be it The luxury I live in it The hard labor and cold silver skyscrapers The intelligence of leaders And the machines that growl like a tiger The ferraris and the mansions of the world I live in luxury The minute I live with thee The hard labor of honey And the cold silver snow dropping The intelligence of planet Earth I live in a summer dream And it is all I need to be happy My very own little treat
