Love my Chevy, Camaro, 442

So glad I feel alive

Racing you at 90...

Red dress
Dress impress
Freedom new
New pew
Fast freedom fire
Fire tire
Sky open
Open oven
Corps Vettie

What if it’s all happening in a raindrop that is about to hit the window of a ’57 Chevy?

Filled plate of grilled tortellini 
Killed the great James Gandolfini
This star's carcass heavy  
A Ford or a Chevy
Should have been a Lamborghini...

It came down slow, it came down heavy 
It covered up, my Hot Rod Chevy 
I went to clean off the snow today 
But what do you know, it melted away...

There once was a girl on the levee
Who by anyone's judgment was heavy
She tried to get here
By crossing the pier
But ended up crushing the Chevy...

Clever lever on robotic wheel
Tasted grease and oil, a big time meal
Sculpted a Chevy’s bumper, a shiny deal.
Ford and Chrysler helped him glue his seal....

Silverado truck and F-one fifty Ford
Went on a date but both got extremely bored
Chevy made a wheelie and Ford promptly booked
Date didn’t last as long as the dinner we cooked....

He is Conrad but not Hilton.
She is Cher but not that Cher.
He is Leif but not Erikson.
She is Tina but not that Tina
He is Chevy but not Chase.
Come meet my new kindergarten students....

Back seat of a ‘56 Chevy
White with baby blue trim
Cruising out of El Paso town 
Headed to the City of Angels
Glorious west-bound sunrise
Static, crackling AM station
Day Tripper on the radio...

The Old Fisherman got a new truck.

A cranberry Chevy.

The people who sell his face

gave it to him.

It replaces the old Ford

with wood side panels 

which hold back the barrels, 

his catch....

From New York to the Gulf of Mexico
Travel path provided as you go
Links of network from plane above
Ocean cruiser scenes we love
Chevy gliding in style
Highway going wild
Horns blast in code
Traveling

Back seat of a '56 Chevy
White with baby blue trim
Cruising out of El Paso town 
Headed to the City of Angels
She’s fast asleep on my lap

Glorious western sunrise
Static, crackling AM station
Day Tripper on the radio...

Angst 
Lies flat 
In the back 
Of a 57 Chevy 
Locked down fast 
Left and turn to rust 
Red rouge flakes of past 
Pasted in a D town cemetery 
Where the rubber burning black 
Filter smoke filled dreams held back...

They always do that, she said.
Who? 
Chevy drivers.
I laugh but silently because she is serious.

What about Ford drivers? What do they always do?
She looks at me like I am a moron. 
What race are they? She asks me.

I stop laughing....

Chariton Iowa 1960
We were in a 1953 Chevy with our Daddies
Brothers

We all three got tossed out into a ditch
when the car caught fire
then we got grabbed up and they ran with us

When the car exploded we had a new problem
The field was dry...

Elon Musk the Starman
Without gas you bet I can
Launched a Tesla Falcon Heavy
Using gas like an old beat Chevy
Electric car for your need
It's got space you won't believe
Lonely ride with astronaut
Use your paypal can be bought

Here lie the remains of Herkimer Sevy
Seems he drove off the pier in his two-tone chevy
Hitting his head on the steering wheel
It split and laid back like an onion peel
And that’s why it’s called it Sevy’s Levee.

He purchased a new Chevy 'Silverado,'
nice truck!

He sits in it going nowhere.
Nice truck.

He likes to be seen
in his nice truck
but the gas he can no longer afford
for his nice truck.

Maybe he will sell his home
live forever in his truck,
his nice truck....

Jabbering in his mind
Unclear thoughts, non-cohesive, renegade,
Running wildly with a 1957 Chevy truck, 
Honking with a gaggle of winter geese.
Fuzzy dendrite connections, 
Brain overload, grabbing out-of-control ideas,
Hoisting them into cyberspace with his unicorn monkey pals....

Route 66 I'd  travel once more
Old now and so ready to retire
A sweet 59 Chevy I'd want to restore
Did it back then, I've still got the fire

Ten to one my best friend will go
Ripe now  for any new adventure
Into the night we'll go with the flow
Plenty of time now for our great tour

Styled like a T Bird.
She really purred in third.
By listening to the engine
you did shift.
Ahe was sleek and styling
if you get my drift.
Her body golden cream,
the roof black.
It's the one with the roof
that slants slightly back.
Pop shifting soon became
my speciality.
I just loved my 
1964 Super Sport Chevy....

Las Vegas 1967
Harrah’s, free drinks
Circus Circus, bring the kids
Frontier, win a Chevy

Golden Nugget, best slots
Flamingo Capri, Elvis impersonator
Caesar’s Palace, world’s best buffet

Tropicana, win big
Sahara, all day breakfast
Dunes, best shrimp cocktail thirty cents
Golden Nugget, live girls
I would certainly hope so....

I have been attending to a sick Chevy.
My neighbor
who I never talk to
or about,
has left a note on the hood
of the truck...

both a warning and a threat:
that the cops have or will be,
or may in the future
be notified!

I think I will have to have
the vehicle humanely put-down.
There’s no fixing the old bag
next-door though....

Sorry officer, the old lady apologizes as she is stopped for speeding.
Her Chevy is rocking out to seventies music
A debonair old geezer in a sports car blows past them
going at least a hundred and ten
Officer looks exasperated.
Gets on walkie talkie
No answer.
Jumps on motorcycle and takes off
Woman texts her husband “Thanks sweetie!”...
