The Jalopy
by Teresa Smeigh December 2016
Apathy,
Bashful, embarrassed.
My clunker,
A sore sight,
To everyone’s eyes, ears.
Banished from my sight!

A jalopy is extremely loved by the owner in many instances. Others are entitled to their opinions!

I agree, I did say my clunker though. And I am entitled to my opinion too. My car has become a target. Has been since I bought it. Within 2 months someone took sharp object to it and scratched the hell out of it. And that is just the beginning. Mine looks like a clunker but still drives thank God.
