Slow Jam

Slow Jam
Form: Novelinee
Theme: Travel and Journeys
Subject: A tail back

A hot summer’s day in a jam of cars
All moving forward slower than a snail
By the time we get there views will be stars
The planned picnic today is doomed to fail
As in plastic boxes the sandwiches sweat
Even the fruit cake has begun to melt
It’ll be fine you said, oh yeah wanna bet
It’s hotter out here than out on the Veldt
And the sun burns turning the car to smelt
