have avoided all attempts
neatly gift-wrapped box
no innocent bystander
my own shapeless crinkling
paper bags or newspapers
crunched around clumsy mechanics
a garage built go-cart racer
tie with shoelaces
rubber bands and bread twisties
bike wheels in back
forward red wagon wheel
reconverted down side shafts
coiling and wrenching
back to cab meeting
half a broomstick handle bar
tasseled dangly pom-poms
painted on sheet metal hood
1014 signifying day we met
skidding each other's hearts
last year’s soap-box derby
not a pretty package
but when you open up and see
marvelous flaming paints
spinning our memories
I hope you know
you are my burning desire
Shall we blast it one last time?
I’ll make those vroom-vroom sounds
