I don't know if this got posted here or not. But awhile ago I wrote this poem. It's based on the poem "When I am old I will wear pruple". I wrote it for all sports car owners, and I want to share it with you all.
When I am an old sports car owner... I shall wear nomex and sunscreen, And carry an old helmet with me. And I shall spend my social secruity on racing fuel and tires, And sit in my garage And listen to hot engines tick as they cool. I will sneak out in the middle of a summer night. And race my old car through the countryside Ignoring speed limits If my old bones will allow. And when people come to call, I will smile and nod As I walk past the gardens to the garage And show them my freshly waxed fender. I will wrench and sweat and wear grease on my face as if it were a jewel. A I will be an embarrassment to all, Who have not yet found the peace in being free And the joy of a four wheel drift in a old friend made of metal and rubber and plastic Who will wait forever For the kind of person I will be When I am old. |

Saw it when Clay posted it elsewhere. Typed it up all nice and pretty and taped it to the wall by my computer. Should have sent it to JP but he's not old enough yet.
