road rage etiquette

i try
to avoid road rage, holding
my hand
down,
not giving anyone
an angry salute,
i refuse to roll the window
down to yell
and scream
about the close call,
about not using
a turn signal,
or tail gating behind me.
i ignore
the lingerer at the stop light
perusing their phone,
i want to, but
i don't tap on the horn.
i restrain myself.
there are too many people
out there
with bats
and guns,
off their meds
on the road to Armageddon.
