His Easter Roadside Wish Was to Cruise On

He drove down the road until he got to a police roadblock.
Busani presented his license and wished himself good luck.
The Easter traveler reassured: I’ve no fears or reservations.
Of drinking and driving and other unruly road transgressions,
he was suspected. The police explained that he couldn’t refuse
a breathalyser without rational cause. A case not easy to diffuse.
You’re silly clowns! He thought. Still, he was taken for a blood test.
An over-limit and a woozy attempted bribe led to a warrant of arrest.
