the THING is
ALL day 
I had been LIKE 
OMG
WHY did you NOT do
ANYTHING on
EARTH
besides I-69

do you really WANT to have to SLOW down 
through EVERY little town

I don't think there
WAS ANOTHER 
WAY

but I DID plan well enough 
to do it
NOT at NIGHT 

it's just getting tedious 

I WANT a MORE 
INTERSTATE 
EXPERIENCE 

AND
I WANT
a MICROTEL 

SO
this girl is LIKE 
DON'T WORRY about the traffic circle 
JUST go THAT way
it will RUN RIGHT into it

& it DID 
& it was EXACTLY what I WANTED 

AND
when I had gotten 
MORE or less 
the distance I wanted to go
& it was getting dark 

I SAID 
OK
I NEED a hotel
& a sign came up

GAS -- FOOD -- LODGING 

liberty Missouri

and I drove down the street
I SAW
a home2suites 
& I was LIKE 
WELL 
I didn't WANT to PAY that MUCH 
BUT I enjoy their product 

SO
I pull into the parking lot 

AND
it hadn't been 
VISIBLE 
from the STREET 

MICROTEL
