NO TURN ON RED

Driving home on a Sunday
afternoon
25mph (trying to conserve gas)
blasting count basie at
the stop light.
It says: NO TURN ON RED
I see a patrol car in my rearview,
not today officer.
you see I just fixed my break lights
and my car is far too clean for the tow yard.
the patrol car drives by as
the birds conquer the power lines.
