The girl in the front seat sobbing
has just failed her road test –
again.
Someone please tell her that the roads
are too crowded anyway,
that there’s nowhere worth going
in America you can’t get by walking,
that there are worse things
than high school and not having
a best friend, or an ankle bracelet tattoo,
or a driver’s license.
Quick, someone please lie.
