Portrait of a Motor Car by Carl Sandburg
IT’S a lean car … a long-legged dog of a car … a gray-ghost eagle car.
The feet of it eat the dirt of a road … the wings of it eat the hills.
Danny the driver dreams of it when he sees women in red skirts and red sox in his sleep.
It is in Danny’s life and runs in the blood of him … a lean gray-ghost car.

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;

It was a sweet Saturday fall evening, perfect temperature, the stages were up, Jim, Cliff and Doc had us wired for sound. Autumn brought it all together, as only Autumn can: Pete with permits; Jeff spray painting signs; Darrick taking inventory; Rod vacuuming; Tree setting out fresh cut veggies from Farmer’s Market; fairy lights; hot dogs on the grill; chips and salsa from Dos Coyotes, and the kegs, so generously donated by Sudwerk and the Coop, resting in a bed of ice.
