Traffic Woman warrior when stuck in traffic sings love songs, screams, screeches her wheels across the lost metropolis puts locks on certain memories to survive. She has nothing to say to you she has everything to say to you she sees you in the next car— forehead pressed to the steering wheel stereo blaring sweeping your mind with your eyeballs. You’re a full-blown adult now— blind as a hubcap to the unseen world. Brynn Saito, “Traffic” from Power Made Us Swoon. Copyright © 2016 by Brynn Saito. Reprinted with the permission of Red Hen Press.
