10 W 30 four quarts

Saturday

was often reserved for

working

on the car.

changing the oil,

the filters,

adjusting

the points, maybe

replacing the plugs

or shock

absorbers.

and then a good wash

and wax

under the old

oak tree

at the end of the driveway.

by six o'clock
it was time to stand

back and admire

the shine.

then a shower and the slap

of Old Spice

against each cheek,

before picking up your

favorite girl,

just in time.
