With the Brain at the Wheel
With the brain at the wheel
the eye on the road
and the hand to the left
pleasant be your progress
explorer, producer, stoic, after your fashion.
Change
CHANGE
to what speed? to what underwear?
Here is a town, here a mill:
nothing surprises you old horse face.
Guzzle-guzzle goes the siren;
and the world will learn to admire and applaud your concern about
the parts, your firmness with employees, and your justice to
your friends.
Your pride will not be overridden
Your faith will go unmortified.
