Driving Home

I’m staring at the twinkling lights on the horizon and grinning, giddy that the sunset colored skies are so vibrant tonight

The hundreds of headlights on the horizon remind me of the silver sequins you’d find on a cheap mini dress at the mall

They’re headed like a river, northbound on the 5

It’s commuters from the country headed to party in Portland

Or Portlanders headed, tired, home
