operations manual

I need no operations manual

to find the starter coil

and begin my life afresh.

What I need is the drive shaft

and the engine oil

and the motivational tape

that unwinds inside the player.

I need a roof rack

to shove the baggage I always carry

and a bungee cord

to tie down the boot.

And finally I need a puncture or two

to encourage me to stay.
