“Under the pale electric glow, Where endless highways come and go, Meyer’s Express sits by the bend, A steady, reliable highway friend. The canopy shines against the night, A beacon of red and neon white. Tires screech softly, engines hum, As weary long-haul drivers come. The metal nozzles click and cling, While cash registers faintly ring. Inside, the warm air smells of toast, A quiet island on the coast Of concrete lanes and midnight fog, Where night-shift workers keep their log. Fresh-brewed coffee drips and steams, Sustaining sleepy road-trip dreams. The shelves are lined with salty treats, For travelers in their vinyl seats. From sweet iced teas to wiper blades, It holds a hundred minor trades. A mother grabs a quick snack pack, A trucker stretches out his back. They share a nod, a passing smile, Before they add another mile. No one stays for very long, Driven by the highway’s song. Yet Meyer’s stands, a ceaseless light, To guide the travelers through the night. A brief pit stop, a tank made full, Against the darkness' heavy pull. You pay the cashier, grab your keys, And vanish in the evening breeze.”
“Not too bad. Love the red headed gal in the pharmacy named destiny. She's always bubbly and happy. Some of the other pharmacy staff are short with you and try to rush you off the phone”
