on fire.
so much romance
at the car wash today
as this couple wandered around the lot
kissing and kissing and kissing yet again
waiting for their car to be finished
not noticing that their car
was long ago completed
and up front waiting for them.
—
“the kiss would have been magical I was sure,
if I hadn’t caught my marshmallow on fire and dropped it on his shoe.”

we pulled up at the same time
right next to each other
i got out
his family got out
he stayed in
we looked at each other
i said hello to him
his mom said
he insists on
riding along
on every journey
and refuses
to get out of the car
until they all get home
once again
he just loves to ride.

scream.
my key fob missing its insides and screaming.
me looking for the insides of my key fob and screaming.
—
went to have coffee with my friend
locked up my car
put my key in my pocket
when i returned to the car
all i had left of my electronic key
was the empty screaming shell pictured above
insides were nowhere to be found
used the key/shell in the car door
and the panic button screamed nonstop
with no electronics to turn it off
until my car started
each and every time
a bit dumbfounded
as key fob was still in one piece
in my pocket
found a tiny screw missing in back
somehow it had
unscrewed itself
fallen out
opened itself up
insides popped out
closed itself back up
and was empty
like it never happened
interesting scenario
luckily i have daughters
with my keys all over the place
and my car has stopped screaming
but my old key fob still looks upset.

smart.
a person without a sense of humor
is like a wagon without springs.
It’s jolted by every pebble on the road.
