Rambling Words, Rambling Wheels

At the Salisbury House Automobile Classic, a 1967 Shelby-American GT500-E "Eleanor" was shown that had fewer than 150 miles on it; a trailered show car in the body of a high-performance pony car.

I long to breathe;
     to open my lungs to the fresh air,
     draw in sweet oxygen.
I?m destined to rest.

I yearn to fly;
     to stretch my legs on the world?s byways,
     pressing hard and swift against my paths.
My life is a static one.

I desire to be loved;
     to have hands hold me tight,
     driven to the edge of splendor.
I remain an object of pure lust.
