New Directions


Coraopolis shows off older buildings and brown concrete

as the car moves down 5th Street.

The bridge soon appears

and the Ohio River rushes on below.

Neville Island- population 1000- is a quiet place.

Busy, but quiet.

A nice place to drive to with a best friend-

with the radio playing the biggest songs at the time.

Tao Cruz and Lady Gaga carry the teenagers

just as well as the wheels of the car.

Hold on.
