The Blue Opel
Blue Opel
Deep beneath the floor of memory
Hidden behind the sacks of intention
The blue opel sits
In the fifty-year garage.
Complete with the nylon pin-striped ceiling
And cushioned back seat
With tiny speakers that play only Floyd,
Or maybe James Gang after too much to drink.
The blue square box,
That we flew back from the Tetons
Angel dust in our noses
And God knows what in our heads.
It shines still,
Like it just rolled fresh off the factory floor.
