Traffic Light

Functional fiction - Bottleneck in Mumbai

I’m traveling behind a box Element Honda on round tires
Following, it’s keeping a good pace,
Then we come to a bottleneck double intersection
With red lights, that stall the traffic
The vehicle before me is in the intersection
Behind the backup of vehicles at a standstill
And although the vehicles in front of it clear,
It decides to stay in the middle of the intersection
Instead of clearing the street for other vehicles
Lucky this light doesn’t have any side traffic
I stop for the light, sitting behind this weirdo
Who decided to sit and wait for the red light
Rather than clearing the intersection
Like I said, lucky this light doesn’t have any side traffic
We finally get going again while the going is good,
The left turn, right turn, I’m trying to anticipate
All the traffic changes. Who’s blocking which lane,
Trying to stay in the flow lane and bypass the traffic
... slowdowns, and stay with the flow, it's like a game,
Vehicles are exiting to side streets, so it’s a dance
Like a ballet, slow, sway, start, stop, cutting in and out
Continue on my way…
The only thing is the weirdo in the box Element Honda
Who I was unable to see past, and following
Until I didn’t ~psp
