I Move the World

In an EV
I move the world
Around me
In the direction I choose

I make it move
Beyond the window at my pace
I can fast forward
To the parts that I long to see
Then I slow to have a better look
Collecting my energy
To move it all over again

When I move the world it’s
Like a hi-def movie in surround sound
No spitting fumes or angry rumbles
I can see it all in its own state
Undisturbed

When I stop the world, I don’t idle
I stop with purpose, in complete stillness
Grab the moment like a photograph
Then another then another, the frames
A movie of the world
Not giving to nor taking
Just being there

I make the decision to move on
I decide not to burn the world down behind me
I choose to keep moving
Past filling stations and oil changers and parts stores
Not sorry to see them in rear view
I decide where my go comes from
And where it will go to

The world moves with me
While I move the world
