Jojo is reckless on the road
Who exerts more control than any you’ve ever seen
Careening down the cloverleaf
So absolutely trusts he his own skill

Alyssa similarly heedless of risk
Well knows the glamour her wildness affords
Flashing that guy as he gets off the elevator
While screeching the lyrics of some overplayed song

Mutual friends of mutual friends
They have no acquaintance with each other
Outside the crowds on social media
But they seem all too perfectly matched

Though still in thought untrammeled and in deed irregular
Both have entered committed relationships
With partners far less interesting than themselves
Who hope no doubt to moderate the excesses

But doubtless too if they met in person
And hit it off and started hanging out
Their union would add to the devastation
But wouldn’t we love to look upon that spectacle
