am i so nervous and worried
when
i see a cop
car behind
me with his party lights on,
motioning
me to pull over.
i'm not on my phone
watching
YouTube vids,
i have no dope in the car,
no bundle
of drugs,
or packets of meth.
i haven't been
drinking, there are no
open containers of
anything except
a warm bottle of Yoo Hoo
in between my legs
and yet,
i begin to sweat as i fumble
for my
license and registration,
my proof of insurance.
there's no weapon
in the glove
box.
no expired tag,
or taillight out.
there's
no one in the trunk
tied up and gagged today.
what am i even worried
about?
