strained by the stress
and drained by the storm,
i stopped at the pub
and hopped on the stoola bearded bloke bumped me
without any pardon
and slapped on the smile
of a half-plastered fool“she purrs like a kitten!”
he boasted to his comrades,
“the shriek of her wheels!
the roar of her engine!”i heard myself laugh
and sipped from my draft
and slipped into a dream
of speed and abandonfifty and sixty
and seventy and eighty
kilometers per hour
heartbeats per minuteninety and one hundred
and one-ten and one-twenty
and one-thirty and one-forty
and one-fifty and faster!the laughter awoke me
and spun me around,
i searched for my words
and cut through the chatter“she sounds like a beauty!”
i burst loud and clear,
“what make and model?
a porsche or an audi?”the bearded bloke chuckled
but offered his answer,
“you misunderstand fella,
why not ask her yourself?”his girlfriend dazzled
in her half-zipped denim
while her wide eyes flashed
with the wild shade of “go!”“what make and model?”
she purred like a kitten,
“my make is russian,
and my model is seduction”
