Belatedly, towing a rust-worn Saab, where
many dreams and adventures were wrenched
out from a youngster\'s brooding petulance ...
Gravel crunches under a pair of balding tires
guttural screaming to a downbeat of debt
spewing steadfastly from a tattered billfold.
What a present! timely to an empty fridge,
in the hallway, a growing pile of washing
impatiently reeking of malodorous intent.
