Ray Bradbury

Because of Farenheit 451
Because of Dandelion Wine
Because of Something Wicked This Way Comes
Because of The Illustrated Man
Because of The Martian Chronicles.
His books made me want to be a writer when I grew up.
And so I did.

Automobiles

Oh Cars. Cars. How sweet for travelling distances you are!
I like when you work, roll forward and brake.
I like when you take me from my home to eat steak!
I think you pollute the air and the land.
Wish I could afford a hybrid, perhaps one day I can!
Meanwhile, I need you in the city of L.A.
I might drive on highways
It could happen!
One day!
