Are tow-eds formally cars that got hitched To the back of a “tow-truck” or is it a myth Not sure about that Must Google that fact Somehow methinks something got switched

Murphy's Law

When the towns only tow truck breaks down, the not-yet repos have time to hide in the garage. While I am still stuck in the mud.

Nighttime is the time when
things spill out of
a child's blanket.
a broken crayon
first day of school
a first hero 
a talking frog
training wheels
a tiny tow truck
heart broken
driver's license
cell phone
never home
graduation.
Nighttime is the time when
things spill out of
a child's blanket...

Please!

A car was parked illegally;
The hydrant wasn’t cleared,
Plus it was by a nursing home
And might have interfered.

I never would have noticed it,
But signage did impart
That a tow truck would be coming
‘Cause the engine wouldn’t start.

Thee note said “Please!” perhaps to cops
Who rarely have the choice
About issuing a ticket to
A reprobate Rolls Royce!

A Confrontation Looms

You think he’d be more grateful.
Neither rich nor poor he’s 
never wanted for anything. 

He's always had what he needs
but never had any gratitude 
until the day his car broke down

in a poor neighborhood and he 
got out of his car to wave the 
tow truck down and gasped  

at the poverty around him.
He’ll catch hell about this 
the next time I shave.
