vampires on the road

we're starving, okay,
not
really starving, but hungry.
fortunately
her purse
is a treasure trove
of life saving
peanut butter crackers
and gumballs,
red licorice
and a tin of breath mints,
fireballs
and what not.
in five hours
we'll be out of Newark
and close
to home.
we'll make it, although our
tongues and lips,
like Dracula,
will be all red.
