drink every time you think "veneer"

On a road in Massachusetts there sits
an ornate bridge with low clearance
I'd have to duck my head for this
fold of marquetry shine

A bridge in Connecticut, tall and loops,
staunch walled pirates of the road
I'd tuck it cool into my purse,
glint of parqueting growth

Although it's thin it tells a good story
Shortcuts are just fine for me
Just so long they don't turn a trick on you
later on down the road
