Riverside Road dips steeply into the bush
And tar gives way to dirt,
Heading home, a hard right turn
Into a kilometer of potholed road
Snaking through overhhanging bush.
The night-time challenge:
Headlights off!
Only celestial light guides.
Mind’s eye map
Keeps us on track (easy)
Instinct avoids potholes (hard).
