Short Chevrolet Poems

Saw a dinosaur on my driveway today
Haven't been drinking, just trust me I say
Pink and green
He was kinda mean
Know how I know, he ate my Chevrolet...

cuckoo for Coco Puffs
Plop plop fizz fizz
bibbity bobbity boo
See the USA in a Chevrolet
Winston tastes good
Like a
Knock Knock
cigarette should
I miss the fifties and sixties...

COUNTRY - PLAIEDES

Country music standard
Comes back again to me
Courtesy Billie-Jo.
Chevrolet parking up,
Courting in the drive-in
Classic car remembered
Can’t get them any more

BIG JACK

“Big Jack’s Chevrolet!”
That’s Big Jack talking his cars
He is pathetic!
Jack has a hyena voice
Uses hands to make a point

It’s one of two things –
He’s too tight to pay a pro
(thinks he’s just as good)
Or    he loves to see himself
Big Jack    on TELEVISION!

in the early month of May
sunsets pink & orange in Santa Fe
in a top down purple Chevrolet
radio rhythm songs do play

~^~

car club cruise is underway
Impalas, Novas, Chevys on display
route 66 rockin' in the U.S.A.
at The End Of Spring Soiree

beauty salon gossip,
or presidential debate ...
Laundress conversation,
or trump x joe ?
Will  It be :
Socialism where "scarcity of everything"
or liberal Chevrolet fish tail?
Which team are you fan of?
Proud boys
or chicago boys ¹
Stick Man Brothers
or barred at the ball?
cheap proselytism for leeches
or expensive pleasure for the ignorant?
what will it be, how will it be?

Rain hitting the windshield
The sound very soothing, speaking with every drop
Hypnotizing to my eyes and ears
Here to wash away angry thoughts
Mimicking my present tears

Wind slightly rocks my Chevrolet 
Inviting the wind as I crack my window
It runs past my face  
Cooling my temper with ease
A light mist tagging along to assist

Done crying, done being angry
Think i'll stay until the rain passes...

MINI METRO – CHEVROLET MATIZ

Sat in the back of a car – Mini Metro or Chevrolet Matiz – 
just waiting for the crash. My crash part of our crash. 
Pulping my flesh, tearing skin, crushing bones. 

Severing my head as my unbroken left arm twitches – 
nerve ending! At my eyes’ last sight. 

Mini Metro comes to rest on its side, petrol pools and burns. 
Other car gently rocks on broken axle. 
All die with perfect, mechanical precision....

Riding in the shotgun seat, of our old Chevrolet.
On the road to adventure, in the late part of May.
Annoying my dad, with the choice of music I play.
Damn my distracting him, we're now going the wrong way.

The road is dark and dusty, we're running out of day.
Ripping along at eighty, with not alot to say.
In the midst of that silence, I use the time to pray.
Please Lord can you help me, I need a safe place to stay.

Winston tastes good like a knock knock cigarette should.
See the USA in a Chevrolet, visit Dinah Shore along the way.
But be sure and be toting some Chesterfield Lights.
So we can be sexy and sultry on these winter nights.

The Marlboro Man is waiting just around the next bend.
When you see him, blow some smoke rings up in the wind.
Cigarettes are sensual, and they will make you look Kool.
Have one lit up and ready at all times; it is the 50's cigarette rule!...
