Jalopy

Jalopy

I am a jalopy

Reliable at one thing

I am always broken down

And covered in dings

I have had many broken parts

And pieces that now sag

My bumper is hanging

My speedometer lags

My bulbs are burned out

I guzzle the gas

Slow is my speed

I no longer kick ass

I need support under my hood

And in need of repair

I spit, sputter and backfire

My tires need air

I am a jalopy

My parts are rusty

I should retire

My seats are musty

I am regularly oiled

But my gears still get stuck

If you take me for a ride

You are bound to be f*#%ed

I find myself "Dancing With Cancer", problem is...I can't dance. I stumble, bumble, and get pulled along. To keep my sanity, (humor me), I write short stories, a journal, musings and poetry....just about anything goes.
