Manic Mechanic

Friends told me of some dude they trusted

But left out the part he was lusted

This mechanic, you see

Wanted to work on ME!

And I went home with tailpipe busted

Mechanic blind, fixes Gundagai bind'

In the 1970s early two contractors worked around
Southern 'New South Wales' and Gundagai town.'
Stationed at the riverside park, at the rear of a garage
With pit and pumps all as part, now Tom and Matt
Got a surprise..One of their machines got shuggared
Inside.' You might know of what i talk? A compeditor
Wanted their buisness to walk.' Its

shadow of intent

ill never get used to
the numbness that tinges away at everything 
every movement
a rusted nusiance 
as if the words that make up my reality are too much to bear
there are no creaks
or technical things to tweak
because i am still
unfortunately, a biomechanical thing
instead there are aches
pains
issues that, like the rain
always streaming down my face
struggles to catch

A Car To a Mechanic

These days good cars oddly somersault,
So this jeep you keep ridding of fault
Big cash you shall be getting plus malt;
Journey time I might speed catapult;
Now,alive and kicking,next in vault...
My dear wife won't fancy the result:
Sure to her hit like rudest insult

Today,jeeps could neatly somersault
And I mean the serviced for cursed fault
But their mechanics neatly assault,
Their

Met-A Mechanic-Called Mind

'...we are doomed not to know the truth exactly
                                     

Man Or Machine

man or machine is,
a world of science
man or machine is,
a world of madness
a machine is a mechanic science
a machine is a mechanic madness
mechanic is mechanic of a man or machine
	
science is a mechanic of man or machine
science is a mechanic of science
vision is visioning man
vision is visioning a machine
vision is visioning a mechanic world

Different Means of Livelihood

The electrician’s pliers
Shields him from live wires
And a final baptism  with Satan’s fires.

A mechanic’s spanner
Is his goddamned banner
Dropping him his daily manna.

At the carpenters shop is his treasured hammer 
Which begins the entire drama,
Into existence hitting woodwork of Glamour 

The judge’s wig 
Adds to his being big, 
Justice sometimes seeming an election to rig

Backyard Mechanic

Backyard Mechanic

I’m a guy of the ‘60’s and ‘70’s, a Ford man, or a Holden or two
we didn’t bother with garages, if the car broke, we knew what to do
We only needed a spanner, a shifter would fit all the nuts
another one for the sparkplugs, and enough room to get at

The Good Mechanic

A doctor is just like a good mechanic but unless your body is broken down, there's no need to panic. Avoid unnecessary trips to a dealership, some diagnostic tests are only a rip. Be an advocate for your own health. You'll save some bucks and add to your wealth. Pay attention to fluids as they

The Mechanic Writes a Love Poem

You got my heart beating at scouring velocity I bet 
The colors of your paint job would be Flambeau and desert sunset 

You got more juice than a Holley 650 double pump carburetor
As kind and cool as the interior of a 68 continental coach door
 
Your mouth was built with the precision of a go

The Mechanic

Please don't panic
Like people of Titanic
Because I'm not satanic
But this flattery tactic
Of smiles that are plastic
Turns everything chaotic 
 Relationships, problematic

An explorer & a mechanic
Called James and Patrick
Lived in the same attic
Both were so charismatic
And so enthusiastic
They embarked on the Atlantic
Leaving their attic
That was so fantastic

Remarks that were so sarcastic
Came flooding to the mechanic
People are

War Mechanic

War came. How could it not? Bringing many things especially death. They wanted to knock Turkey out of the war. One ally less for Germany. 
Many events happened. Some were firsts. All included death. It was the stuff of legends. Making small nations great and great nations small and killing their empires.
It was quite a

De ja vu.
De ja vu.
Things happen sometimes that have happened before.
Find a way through.


Not all destiny paths lead to the same finale.
Life improves with age, but always slowly, gradually.


I am not as young as I used to be.
I am not the same version of me.
I improve with age, fading every day.
I am not your remedy,

The Bush Mechanic

He was an old fella in overalls
With a greasy rags hanging out of his pockets all
And his finger nails were bordered in black
From the years fixin’ engines on his back

He worked hard every day
Burnin’ daylight was not his way
And I rolled into town behind a truck
My car givin’ in being out of luck
