Model Eight

Frankensteined together with grit,
gum and gumption,
you engine you,
powering the line with all kinds
of zapped electricity,
a buzz here
a small shock there as jolts
flash upon the wall,
that block and piston combo
chugging as fuel spills inside
igniting drive and thrusting while
that frame lurches, holding back
and grounding all four rubber pinions,
no revolving in store,
but speeds are in excess of
stationary leads.
