At what point does one stop investing in an old car? For me it will be when the motor falls out with the price of vehicles these days. Fingers crossed.


Cheaper Than a New Car

Today my car
is undergoing surgery
to fix a worn out arm
install a bar
to stop the sway
and end the awful clunk
it makes when I
apply the brakes.

I hope this works.

I love this. Reminds me of William Carlos Williams’ poems.
