another eight

you take a wrench
and tighten up
the screws on your legs.
your arms,
the giant bolt that sticks
out of your neck.
you stand and start with
the oil can,
each joint getting a full
squirt of black juice.
then the battery
charger, you swing open
the rust hatch
and hook up
the negative and positive
cables
to your heart,
it zaps you running.
you're good to go
for another eight.
