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. Update: It’s fixed.


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.
