Breakdown

She found the key to the shed
where the tools and the go cart
waited like a death bed.

She knew just what tool to pull
from the dust covered shelves,
tinkering with this and that.

She rode that go cart
with the greatest of ease; until
the day she decided to leave,

where she left the go cart to sit
on the side of the road where its
oil drips, to emptiness.
