I was too amused to be afraid

One of the few glimpses I got
into my Dad's federal agent
work persona occurred when
my Mom had her chain snatched
while visiting her father
in our old neighborhood
I was standing out front with
some friends when my Dad came
rushing out of our apartment
after getting the phone call
We jumped into his government car
Sped off on a drive that normally
takes about 10-15 minutes
It's legend in my family
that Dad drives slowly
and has little sense of direction
Well, that afternoon, I was
treated to another side of
his auto-handling skills
We raced through red lights,
in and out of traffic, and
practically on the sidewalk
Reached the crime scene
in under 3 minutes

great
the old man

always has a few
astonishing tricks
up his sleeve
one is to be a young man
when the need calls for it
