HOT CAR CLEANER
–
Men don’t like to quit,
But boy, he surely reached it…
It was too hot
His legs were shot,
He’d done less than half of it!
–
Clearing out the car
Only so far…
MOXIE soda–
One sip it’s over–
He needed a cool water jar.
–
Disposal in three bags,
Arrayed on his cart (no tags)…
Making slow work,
Hardly a perk,
No shade nearby to bag!
–
He worked as long as he could,
Not quite as long as would…
As he wearily clopped
Was it too soon he stopped?
The whole of him didn’t feel good.
