			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" 
 
she being Brand 
 
-new;and you 
know consequently a 
little stiff i was 
careful of her and(having 
 
thoroughly oiled the universal 
joint tested my gas felt of 
her radiator made sure her springs were O. 
 
K.)i went right to it flooded-the-carburetor cranked her 
 
up,slipped the 
clutch(and then somehow got into reverse she 
kicked what 
the hell)next 
minute i was back in neutral tried and 
 
again slo-wly;bare,ly nudg. ing(my 
 
lev-er Right- 
oh and her gears being in 
A 1 shape passed 
from low through 
second-in-to-high like 
greasedlightning)just as we turned the corner of Divinity 
 
avenue i touched the accelerator and give 
 
her the juice,good 
 
			   (it 
 
was the first ride and believe i we was 
happy to see how nice she acted right up to 
the last minute coming back down by the Public 
Gardens i slammed on 
 
the 
internalexpanding 
& 
externalcontracting 
brakes Bothatonce and 
 
brought allofher tremB 
-ling 
to a:dead. 
 
stand- 
;Still) 
 
 
 yeah so guys, if you didn't know what that was about.... then.... i feel bad for you. hahahaha. you must all go kiss the ground that e. e. cummings ever walked on.
