Speed Racer: Mach 5 🚸

He really needs to slow down, He's goin too fast!

His front lic. plate forcibly impacted,

compacted, call it what you will.

The perfect shape of a raccoon's head-once embedded,

Looking at its death mask from the outside in.

It looked like a collision for sure,

Speed Racer Mach 5 just too fast …

Raccoon lost : 0

One second he was and then wasn't,

No more raccoon named Moe,

He’s gone up yonder, to knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door.

Just another day in the far reaches of the netherworld:

Fairytale Wastelands.

Anticlimactic—

A simple muffled thud and that was the End.

Scott L.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare

And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.

Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
