Thank you so much to everyone at the M.O.D and the RAF and to all who have kindly supported my writing.

Abandoned by the wayside

July 5, 2026

Abandoned by the wayside,
in the despair of the time,
a chevy sixty-nine.
Abandoned by the wayside,
with bullet holes in its sides,
and blood stains upon its seats,
and a few dollar bills,
scattered here and there,
a chevy sixty-nine,
with a shattered windscreen,
and an empty briefcase,
and bits of brains inside.
Yes, a mess,
but got a lotta miles on the clock,
a chevy sixty-nine.
Abandoned by the wayside,
in the despair of the time.
Abandoned in the middle of nowhere.
People being shot,
but for what.
People fleeing for their lives.
Yes, a chevy sixty-nine.
Abandoned by the wayside,
in the despair of the time,
a chevy,
a bloody chevy sixty-nine.
