Sweethearts Returning: A Mean Force

A backseat driver is rebuked - a poem.

Witnessing a treasured fantasy,
Driving and spelling out
The principle;

The proud driver,
Simply investigating,
Distinguishes a different case.

The defiant vehicle owner,
Unappreciative of the constancy
Of burdensome chatter,
Steadfastly rebukes
The unflattering pest
Of a companion -

And the concerned partner now
Glides into a holding pattern,
Primping in some static location.

The host becomes
A perfect reflection
Of that focused mirror

Handing out a stay-in-line mentality
To the imminent progress-facilitator.
