The black rubber strip
is whipped and flutters
in a random pattern
from the driver side windshield wiper.
I am distracted by its motion.

Distracted away from rain water
patterns smeared but not cleared
from glass. Distracted from
harsh inner accusations
"should have had this fixed
last week." Distracted away
from the ache of you, gone.

The strip flutters
then flies onto the highway.
Hard plastic pointless.
Still, we go through the motions,
imagining it matters.

I like the idea and can visualize it. I woudl only suggest a bit of rearranging of the lines, would make it a bit stronger.

otherwise, I enjoyed :)
