Jim Northrup – Nov 14th, Fun with Chairs

From an Anishinaabe poet, I love this piece. Reminds me of the chair I use for Yoga. 20 years old, paint splattered and on it’s 3rd life at least!

REZ CAR

It s 24 years old,

It s been used a lot more than most.

It s louder than a 747.

It’s multicolored and none

of the tires are brothers.

I’m the 7th or 8th owner

I know I'll be the last,

What’s wrong with it?

Well, the other day

the steering wheel fell off.

The radio doesn't work

but the heater does,

The seats have seen more

asses than a proctologist.

I turn the key, it starts,

I push the brake, it stops,

What else is a car

supposed to do?
