71 South

I couldn't whistle and she
couldn't spit.
Outside Middletown Ohio we came across a carnival
of 18 wheelers
beggin' for a shine.
So we did it up.
She did the windows
I did the tires,
we worked all day
and fell in love
in the evening air
north of Cincinnati.

The profile pic is Phil Hale. His work is simply incredible.

I found some MP3s of The Detachment Kit. I like their sound, so they've past the first test biggrin. I'll put them in heavy rotation on the i-pod and most likely end up picking up their album. Thanks for the tip!

To read your poem you'd almost be tricked into thinking that 71 South isn't the most boring fucking stretch of highway on the planet. Very nice. Again.
