Detroit (iv) 'roads'
[ASR] A ramble about cars and roads.

♠♠♠♠♠

Detroit

(iv)

♠♠♠♠♠

Roads, roads, roads.
Roll out the roads by any other name!
They connect the continent with cars
and coaches, cabriolets, four-wheeled wonders,
two stroke motors unmuffled
that usher in the backfire of traffic,
rush 'round corners,
speeding down some
road, road, road.
A web of wandering spokes expands
from the Civic Center's
glass towers fed by souvlaki,
and the Opa! of saganaki,
the fumes of Fords,
the Fisher chassis of Chevys,
the cool clean lines of Chryslers,
Roads link the far-flung cities with
the motown tunes
of Motor City ditties.
