Houston we have a problem

i bring

a book to the car dealership,

to wile

away the hours

as they work

on my car

and its flashing dashboard

lights

saying,

get out quickly,

run,

the brakes system has

failed,

abandon all hope,

Houston we have a problem,

run far.

say goodbye

to your loved ones

and get your house in order,

or bring it in for the oil

change

and brake fluid

replacement.

you're overdue by ten

hours.
