This is one of the oldest things I've written-saved in my jewelry box for more years than I care to count and never shown but to two or three people.
Knowledge of one who controls the beast
Escapes the average mind
Enriching soley to the controller
Perhaps enchanting to those outside
Only he can operate the massive
Now and forever it is his alone
The metal serpent
Runs free on asphalt oceans
Untouched by those unknowing
Coming swiftly at every turn
Knifing through the constant current
Inside, the controlling mind is at work
Needless of the smaller outside
Going forever free, forever proud
