SIGHTSEERS - A Christmas Drive
Sightseers Motel II
The sign burns crimson through an iron-gray dusk,
“SIGHTSEERS” buzzing like a preacher’s trust.
A promise unkept, flickering bold,
Where wanderers rest but never grow old.
Two cars rusting, ghosts at the wheel,
Salt-bitten chrome, tires frozen in steel.
Empty rooms echo a neon hum,
It’s nowhere, baby, and nowhere’s home.
The snow won’t bury what the past won’t hide,
Cheap whiskey stains, a thousand-mile ride.
Headlights pierce what’s already dead,
A vacancy sold to dreams unsaid.
This is it – the end of the road,
A slow decay in a forgotten code.
Sightseers, stop – but don’t look inside,
Where the lost still drive, and the living hide.
