that new car smell

despite a little rust,,

a few dents,

she had

that new car smell

all the same.

she gleamed,

glistened,

rain rolled off

her waxed exterior.

she had a great

sound system,

top of the line speakers,

she was turbo

charged,

tires that gripped

the road.

leather, all leather

seats.

a stick on the floor,

manual.

hardly driven at all,

to church

and back,

the store.

she was gassed

and ready to roll.
