Sunday, March 25th, 2007Damned, damned lawn mower
On you I spent afternoon
Spark plug, air filter
Murray support sucks
But, like VA’s, it was free
So I dug and dug
Eventually
I found the damn manual
On the internet
Bought the crap I need
With Pigpen at Home Depot
Ogled new mowers
But I was loyal
To that thrice damned lawn mower
Changed everything out
Once done, it started
Promptly on the 13th pull
Erupted black smoke
Ran fine, standing still
But when I pushed it, it stalled
Got half the lawn done
It took stops and starts
And now my arm kinda hurts
And my foot hurts too
I think its done now
Might just set it on fire
I kicked it real hard.
