Hi car, am I cool?

Gabriel Stoodley 1985 (Canada)



Alpha Romero
gliding, rolling over shifts
adrenaline pump

every breath now
in sync with the speed of pace
heartbeat races on

jets in front and back
eyes are moving back and forth
so close and so far

watch out a tight squeeze
speeding up and slowing down
one more lap the end

on the final stretch
max out speed and sneak passed him
winner of the race!!
