poetry jam: 3ww

chewing a wad of gum
spitting it out with disgust
at the sound of the police siren
pouting at the copper
to explain the rust bucket
might just work

  2. As I drive one of those, I resonate with this poem. Unfortunately I'm not cute enough to get away with flirting with the police, hee hee. Your poem made me smile.

  6. A bit of a Bonnie and Clyde feel
    too bad the rust bucket can't peel out
    fun

  7. Nice, that feeling of freedom and running, like an silent movie. Very interesting.

  9. Had to chuckle out loud at this one .. love the way you call police folks 'coppers.'

  10. The wad word has given me grief with this week's 3WW.

    Interesting timing though - have been walking around a picture of a rusty old FJ recently, wondering about a poetic angle.

  11. Ha ha...saw a couple in a car just like this yesterday...wondered how can that car work but obviously it did, it got them to subway...I noticed it because it's very rare to see cars like that anymore on the road. I just hope they got home without having to pout at a copper!! :)
