the little things

one tire loses air
a little everyday
depending upon
the speed and twist
of the wheel
in your hand.
you notice
its slow eeking
of air out to from
it came. you can't
hear it, or see it.
it's hardly
discernable, this
loss, but in the end
it all adds up. it is
the little things
that can put us
on the side of
the road, over time.
