Merging

When I merge on the highway
I feel like I’m participating in a ballet
When do I go?
Left Lane? Right Lane?
All of these cars
All of these people
All of the people with all of their problems
Are all thinking about different things
But for brief moments, we are all thinking about that asshole who’s cutting people off
I want to be close to these people sharing my thoughts
I want to be so much closer to them, but they’re so far away
Sometimes I wonder
What if I just swerved a little bit
And got into a car accident
Maybe I’d die
And then merging wouldn’t bother me anymore
I fucked up the ballet
