you're my fender bender absorption

the dents to my once mobile heart

now i am in the shop for repairs

and considering the mileage accrued

with past relationships

running on painful tread,  

 

 

i have a notion to park myself in a lot

and idle with you for awhile,

the dents are just cosmetic

but my interior has been brought back to its original sheen

by your love

 

and as long as i know i can drive away if i need to

my feeling is that i won't want to---

as long as you are sitting in the passenger seat.

You have stolen my heart with this one Jacob...being a lover of fast cars and sensitive poets...and the dents...they just give it character. :) Julie

Some of we older models with four on the floor or three on the tree shifters to keep the hands busy and a heavy foot had a tendency to pop the clutch and stall at the line. Passengers beware, there was no belt to keep you in.
Great analogy, j. I like it.

I enjoyed the humour of this ,Jacob. The old bodywork may be showing a few dents, but, gently driven, a well tuned engine can still keep you going.:-)
