SMART CAR

Bought a car in ‘94’
Kept it til the day before;
20 years I drove it round
It was faithful, cheap, and sound.
Yesterday I set it free;
Donated it to charity.
Bought a new car just my size;
But everything’s computerized!
Got a manual THIS thick;
to help me make some sense of it!
Darn thing starts without a key;
If I’m in proximity!
Has a satellite radio;
How it works, I do not know.
There’s no knob or dial in sight;
Just a screen that’s black as night.
Seats are heated; with a lifter!
Even has a paddle shifter;
(Guess they figured just in case;
I need to row across a lake?)
Don’t know how to start the wipers;
(I knew more than this in diapers!)
Nice big trunk--I sneaked a peek;
(Climbed in through that big back seat!)
Cause it opens magically;
I know not how, most tragically.
The sound’s a “system”; 7 speakers!
Two that boom, and 5 are tweekers?
There’s a screen for navigation;
Maps for every single nation;
Shows me freeways in Taiwan;
Keeps repeating “Navi-on!”
Whole car runs by one computer!
She's the boss of this commuter;
Think she likes me..(could be wrong)
Cause she beeps when I am gone.
Eyes on both sides and behind her;
I’d hide too, and don’t remind her!
What she looks like? Not a clue;
(Except one of her teeth is blue..)
I’ll keep reading; I’ll keep hoping;
Soon I'll get the gas tank open!
Until I figure her intent;
I own a driveway ornament.

| I have seen smart cars and I agree with your last line. If I had one that's what it would be. I do like the way you describe all the modern gadgetry. Think I'll just keep my old simple ford. At least I know what everything is and does. Good poem! |
