the death of an old school convertible
she just crapped out
I told the mechanic
arms crossed & looking down
at the hood
kicking the tire
what do you mean she just crapped out
asked the mechanic
I don’t know I said
but she did
she just crapped out
why don’t you open her up
& take a look for yourself
july two thousand twenty-four
