The mid-nineties Pontiac
looks like a hunk of blue plastic.
That mid-nineties Pontiac
has a rainbow lei hanging from
the rearview mirror.
That mid-nineties Pontiac
likes these things, in order, according
to raw numbers of bumper stickers:
Jesus Christ the Risen Lord, the New Orleans Saints,
and Allstate You’re In Good Hands.
(Three, two, one, if you’re
wondering)
The mid-nineties Pontiac
hits a pothole, backfires,
and hangs a right off of Jefferson Street,
red eyes fading into the night.
