going the wrong way

by Antwan Fields - Aries

down a one-way street with a boy under the sheet
got two minutes to get him home but i don't want to let him go, im on the way, close my eyes for a second, but why let him go? 
i check my watch but i shouldn't have, what was the point
im carreening toward the garbage truck that is flying in my direction with no restraint and it occurs to me that i am going the wrong way down the one way street.
and than i got the boy home. 
somehow.
