There are many songs about old cars, this one moved me... Lol. it's here I sit and rust amid this ruin and rancor like tire irons toothy grills and car parts before me...the acid rain floods my floorboard, burns my pores, and rots my upholstry.. once I was worshipped, polished magnificently, now I lay in decay by the dirty angry bay... I'm ready to leave I wanna get out of here I'm ready to ride away I don't want to die in here I'm ready to ride mmy skin is metallic now, no longer an elegant powder blue... my body unhinged and sleeping in the jungle of motor block manifolds and metal relics... what was deluxe becomes debris, I never questioned loyalty, but this dead end demolishes the dream of an open highway... dig me...but don't...bury me By Adrian belew
Good grief! Shower tips and poetry. Next up, flower arranging for the little vases we all keep on our door posts. There're some pretty good poems-try Ed Hirsch, but this isn't one of them and this sure ain't the place.
Actually, this thread is very inspiring to me so I wrote a little haiku. WTF? The HAMB blooms like a cherry blossom, stories of shower tips and poetry, But why does my carb leak? What do you guys think? Maybe we could do something like tech week where we could have a poetry contest and give away bubble bath or scented douche. Okay, I'm being a smart ***. I understand the sentiments that the poem captures. Like most of us, I'm affected by seeing a junkyard car and realizing it was once new and someone's pride and joy. I have to fight the urge to want to bring them back to their former glory..but poetry on the HAMB? I dunno, man. I just DON'T KNOW.
H.A.M.B. the Musical debuts on Broadway in the spring of 2014. Try outs begin next week. The new firewall tags will have a huge rainbow on them too.
Here I sit, Brokenhearted. Tried to ****, And only farted. That's all I got. Can I get a hug? If I was that car,I'd leap into the crusher.
There once was a man from Boston Who came south in his little green Austin There was room for his *** and a gallon of gas But his balls hung out so he lost 'em!
On a hill far away, Set an old Chevrolet, It's fenders all tatered and torn, Then along came a boy in a Model A Ford, And towed that old Chevrolet home.....
Girls, I'm conflicted. I'd like to snap fingers in applause but just can't put down this fabulous iced Berry White Mocha.
Start playing "Hot Rod Lincoln" in your head... At the yard one day and I sure was bored So I said "Ill find me a 9" Ford" When I crawled under an old Galaxie I heard someone say "That belongs to me!" I thought "An F100 might work fine" Another voice says "Hey that one's mine!" On and on, one after another I even heard "It's for my mother!" I wound up thinkin these guys were ***s So I swapped around all the ratio tags! Thank you, thank you...I'll be here all week...
Thought I felt something in my eye, While reading this post, I began to cry. Getting old and meek Too sentimental and weak Nah, I was in the can and got caught in the fly
