Ironclad


Gray cars are popular today
not for the statements they avoid
     (red rouser wannabe,
     blue jewel of dignity,
     white for sturdy,
     black for too cool)
but for the statement they so loudly
do not make:

     You don’t get me

I rest here enclosed
in quiet quality
so like Dad’s deuce coupe

     you don’t know what I’ve got.

Gray, glossy or
a little metalflake
never electric
hybrid at the very best–

I drive a gray car now
and when I trade it in
I’ll own another.

So your takeaway from gray must be,

     you don’t get me now
     and you never will.

Written in June, trade-in complete in August.  Yup, gray hybrid metalflake

Every car is a poem in itself. Fun indeed.

Hello duke-
Not much to say here, except that this one is at home, parked in the FUN forum.

It seems like a place holder poem from you, but I'll ride along.

Hope you are well.

is this an add for the tesla truck?
just like beyond philosophy Elon Dank Stank? (I tease)

Gray cars say, I can't pick a color. I go for brown every time I can afford a car... the color of dirt and mud, because it blends in
