All the Road Signs - Rebecca del Rio

[Larry Robinson]

All the Road Signs

Are in people's eyes, 
The driver said after
Winning at Chicken.
The passenger terrified
Wonders at narrow streets
Designed for walking
Clogged with cars, 
Men, backs bent under bundles
Women, baskets top their heads
Not teetering, but gliding
As the women do.

In a world
Where Fate rules,
No worries.
My time or yours
Who yields
Who moves forward
The road signs
In our eyes.

	- Rebecca del Rio
