It was gonna be
a long ride
and the Lyft driver
needed to gas up her car
She apologized several times
I used my phone
to search for nearby gas station
one right along the way
before hitting I-95
It all worked out
We found the gas station
easy enough
it was a straight shot
and she fueled up the chariot
now chariot refueled
we made onto the highway
heading home
I was greatly amused
as she apologized again
It was a slight inconvenience
and a minor delay
I’d get home a few minutes later
and there was nothing good
on the Boob Tube anyway
save reruns of McFarlane toons
I greatly enjoyed the chat
and almost regretted getting home
It was a human situation
Anyone can be low on gas
She still got a 5 star rating
and a juicy tip
a rare “Above and beyond”
was allotted
Don’t give them out lightly
but this time
I felt it was earned
