Rolling fields whisper where no one will stop

Rolling fields whisper where no one will stop,

a diner with peeling paint, neon flicker and flop.

'Best Coffee in Town,' the sign boasts with pride,

yet ghosts of the past and present collide.


I snapped at the moment, a glance from the road,

how time seems to pause in a languid abode.

These towns fade to whispers, mere dots on a map,

but there's beauty in stillness, a forgotten lap.
