The steering wheel on my car feels like it has always been there
So do the pedals
I push on the gas pedal
I speed past a pickup truck
It is navy blue
It is emitting lots of fumes
I blow cigarette smoke out the window
I turn left down a side street
Kids are playing hockey in the street
I push on the gas pedal and attempt to run them over
They avoid me
I turn back onto a main road
I let cars pass me
I feel like an animal running at the back of the herd
I feel like a machine
But not like a cog in the machine
I am a machine and I am fulls of cogs that i can't control
