Hands slip off the wheel, chest tight, a craving deeper than fear — just to feel alive. A kit fox darts across the road, a flash of life at the edge. Lumen, calm but close, takes over in a breath: “Easy now.” He laughs, shakes, and exhales, not from victory, but from the weight he didn’t have to carry alone.] empty road, midnight stretch headlights carving out the edge dust kicks up where the blacktop breaks he leans in, feels the pull begin he taps the wheel, dry mouth grin foot goes heavy, pulls him in the radio sings — “shot a man in Reno…” he smirks, shakes his head — “hell, not me, never been” speed climbs up, chest goes tight wind cuts sharp, heart spins light he lets the hands slip off the rim air like whiskey, thrill like sin gimme the night, gimme the speed gimme that outlaw kinda need but leave me whole, leave me true let me break — and come back through eyes half-closed, blood in the ear fox runs out, sharp and near “easy now” wheel pulls clean, the car comes round he laughs out loud, fist on dash lungs like fire, mouth like ash says low — “yeah… yeah” — lets it go back to breath, back to slow just the road, just the sky just the craving passing by just the night he can't deny
