Awesome Poem
I think you guys, yes, guys in particular, will like this poem. It's by e. e. cummings. I know it is written strangely, with the odd placement of parenthesis, but that is how he wrote it. so do not mind it. just read it. It's called "she being brand"

thoroughly oiled the universal

up,slipped the
clutch(and then somehow got into reverse she
kicked what
