tribute # 220 - our spacecar

10 years with our Honda Insight.
no other has her purr.

her stick shift was cooperative
control, listening for what engine wants.

if losing a lover is like losing an arm,
to lose a car is like breaking an ankle.

Damn--you really liked that car!

yeah, too bad we totalled it.

we are now "car-free" aka stranded into clutches of city transit and rates of rental places.

Car free is free. At least in my book.

(Though you may want to keep that Zip-Car number on your speed dial).

I enjoyed this. I have a car like this one. No lover compares for reliability, drive, energy, style. Sadly. But I can say it's mine and know it's true!
