the only rusty tumble weed

the cold salty winters have eaten you up

people point and laugh

why

because you are ugly?

not to me

despite your aches

you love to breath out on the winding hillside.

and the sleek young, smart ones passing you, smugly.

you glance out to sea, and a calm smiles stretches across your hood

and your windshield reflects the warmth of the sun.
