FINE



sitting at the console
hand resting on the shifter
the sun shinning through
the tint along the curved
windscreen

Enough Petrol
gauge reads three quarters
and plenty of nothing in
the boot

an old dirty jacket
(leather)
a tire iron
some empties
a blanket
and the spare tire
thats white lettered

Sunshine sparkles
on the highlights
framing the beauty
of your features

and down
the long avenue
of sheet pressed metal
are miles that have
pushed through
freedoms atmosphere

while Joplin sang
the blues

Chevrolet Impala
wont you run
blacktop

turn the time clock

forgot to write about who was sitting in the bucket seats

hair is long and frames the golden lines and pursed lip mouth thats not unknind she sets the spark to kindling heart and flames the fan of any man with eyes exotic soft and sharp in depth and light when laugh lines fit and catch the wild and make this sit the acts of pyre churning higher

I remember buildings with external support

the Louvre is like this the new parts is it not?? internalization and imagination just enough key points to frame up something specific stripped down item thoughts that can add on any movement direction depending on reader It takes much to fathom some I write and some are just out there I always admired photography that creates thought involvement its like a dance and limiting speech in real life is so hard for me I ramble on and on.. This is from watching DOORS videos of Jim driving the Blue Lady around .. Esker~
