Alan Whitehorn: Traveling Slower

As I gaze out upon the large intercity expressway,

I know all too well that I am no longer speeding in the fast route.

I am now in the slow lane.

But at least, I am no longer stopped in the parking lot.

And the old engine is still running,

although I can hear creaking sounds that have never be present before.

I just hope the car body and engine hold up a little further.

I still have a long way I want to go.
