Advent Calendar Day 15 - Passing cars

Irredeemably awake at two in the morning
A background hum
Waves of blood in my ears
Resolving from uncertainty into existence
A sweep of light travels, backwards, across the ceiling
Each newly-created car contains
Tangled up in the boot amongst the old maps and ice-scrapers
A story

An Advent Calendar celebrating some forgotten pop-cultural instance from your childhood. Such is the nostalgic power that it might as well contain a Madeleine behind each window.
