memorable vehicles
Before power steering
a baby blue
dodge swinger
my grandfather owned
rubber bumpers in the front
looked cool
the i
was dotted with a daisy
$750 bought a four-door
brown Impala
with a 350 engine
once owned
by a grandmother
who never did over 35
paid a guy a six-pack
for fixing the fuel pump
lost a tiger-eye ring
in the front seat
ugly dull
blue mustang
lasted 4 or 5 months
when I walked everywhere
so it didn't matter, anyways
black falcon beauty
brother wrapped good enough
around my Australian neighbor's tree
high-tech aerostar
my three year old
found a filet knife
from a fishing trip
hidden near his car seat
stabbed 5 good slashes
in the new two-tone upholstery
his bouquet of birthday balloons
were stabbed to death
with the same knife
that day
as a lesson
by an angry man
who didn't scream
like me
checking fingers and toes
wondering who would do
such a stupid thing
