Square Tires
What if all our tires were square? Well, we couldn't go here or there! We couldn't go, well, anywhere! If our tires were square... We'd walk everywhere! There wouldn't be much pollution in the air! Airplanes couldn't take off anymore! We'd go back in time, to the dinosaurs! If tires were square.... We'd sail everywhere! Circle shaped tires wouldn't be found. Now, I am glad my...

Premium Member Kicking Tires
Kicking Tires So that is next year’s model, is it now? The vintage being deftly moved aside. I feel oddly sorry for them both, and how Her sleekness won’t survive the filthy ride. The vintage is deftly moved aside, the owner seeks his youth in pristine sheen Her sleekness won’t survive the filthy ride. I was once the starlet in this scene. The owner,...

First Check the Car Tires
The car's engine Fred often fires. He. simply, first checks the car's tires And off moves, tires spitting fires: Tubular rollers end up criers; Traffic wardens with their "Stop!" liars: Fred at what he loves never tires! The strength Free Fred uses he hires From booze and kola sold by Mires... After three months Fred's Benz for buyers! Often worse than cars long in...

Mediocre We Must Not Flatter
Mediocre we need not flatter With laurels on a cheap platter: Hero’s Effort make a matter; A dropped metal’s heavy clatter… “What is right” we foully batter And Future Foundation scatter, When save we just can The Latter And ensure True Victory later… Mediocre we must not flatter: On our clothes staining mud spatter; Problems feed and they are fatter, Tires allowed to be flatter... Don’t...

Premium Member Bonfire of the Tires
Someone built a blazing bonfire out of tires At the crest of the hill between the villages, And we have come here to ride our sleds The mile and a half to the bottom of old 60, On the solid sheet of ice over packed snow Two trips down and up, and we are frozen, Our noses red, our eyelashes icy...

Premium Member Tires and Ropes For Swings
My bug out bag would include my grandchildren. It would have to be large, because I have ten. My cat and dog would go in and my wild raccoons. They count on me for their food right? My husband could stay home. I have had him so long we are redundant. We can watch eight hours of TV And laugh at only...

From Tires To Travel
FROM TIRES TO TRAVEL There I stood all by myself, Looked at tires there on the shelf. They put them on the cars each day; I watched as people drove away. Then one day I said aloud, “Of all this, Lord, I’ve been so proud, But now I give you all today,” And from those tires I walked away. Yet really when I left...

Premium Member I'M Back
I’m Back I’m back to the hotel in Springfield, Illinois. Safe travels and great Time on the I-55 time machine. Old friends came along with me, Smells of hot Rubber, and gasoline. New sights, some in burning Memory, some Schmeered across the Windscreen of my mind. Felt my daddy’s calm Fall upon me somewhere Between the wheel and The leather. How he loves to drive Sitting within me as We dream and...

Two Spare Tires
Holidays can put a lot of miles on the gastronomical tread ... That last slice of cake will have you wobbling to bed So you better hope you’re at home, and not somewhere else instead Because now you’re starting to feel faint, too much turkey is giving you the meat sweats You’re hearing sounds from Thanksgivings past, those plump birds are cackling at you...

Premium Member Tires Straight
On my 60" HD TV. I saw a ragged child with a sunburst smile. Wearing a patchy blue dress more dirt than fabric on it. For fun she was rolling a bent bike tire. With a thin stick down a dog-eared road. Somehow, she kept the ancient tire rolling straight. She kept the tire on the straight....

Africa's Square Tires
In Africa since the 1960s Africans have been driven in vehicles with square tires whose drivers sit and steer behind square brake-less wheels January to January vehicles jerk and jolt all the way passengers scream and shout hardly enjoying the ride on rough and pot-holed roads Most times passengers leave the seats and kneel they pray and pray and pray to the Al-merciful God for journey...

Yellow Tires On the Grass
"YELLOW TIRES ON THE GRASS" in the hours before the hour the grass is cut. the cars pass from left to right, the cigarette stays hot until the end. traffic jam on the 99 denied another given another. dirty clothes are made clean the pizza is on its way. By: Chicano Eddie 10-26-2016...
