My Body As A Car Poem by Sheena Blackhall

My Body As A Car



My body's an old banger
Sometimes it backfires

Fate, the backseat driver
Tells me to slam the brakes on
Sometimes I run on empty

I'm on a collision course with a wall
Old age, the fender bender
Is putting a spoke in my wheel

Lately I reverse away from living
I'm running out of steam, out of road
Soon I will be melted down for scrap
