Food in the Back Seat

I’m grateful that food’s in the back seat in my life right now. ~ Lanaya B

Food in the car I know well…
driving from one fast food window
to another, eating it while driving,
driving long enough to eat it,
getting food any time I needed
to kill s few minutes before a meeting…
then discarding the traces in public cans
for they couldn’t go in my dumpster.
There are times now I have food in the car,
returning from the grocery store,
taking a dish to a gathering,
transporting goodies from place to place.
Food I have a “need” to eat
before reaching a destination yields insanity.
But food out of the driver’s seat
means recovery stands strong.
