the power washer

have you lost

the thrill of your electric power

washer?

is it over

with the leaky

hose, cumbersome

wire

and long metal

nose. are you done with

cleaning

the brick, the patio,

the car,

the bike, the shed.

scouring

the world of mildew

and dirt

that's so quick to return.

so many

hours invested,

so much noise and effort.

but it was

fun while it

lasted.

here, have a go at it.

start it up and hold on.

it's your turn.
