driver door wide open, someone
piles bricks on the gas pedal, turns
the key, pops the clutch, & dives
sideways into dry dirt, gravel, weeds
while the car shoots forward & tips
down the slope, bounces off rocks
& carves divots in trees, whump
crackle, metal dimples & groans
another used-up ride the woods
kindly clothes & claims as its own
