Ethel Mertz

A Poem by LeeLee Ryder
"

Living in LA for umpteen years was a fun ride... Ethel, my trooper II took me to lots of places.. LA- cross the USA & back again--twice .. what a tropper....

"

 

Racecar Bob speedin' by ...

 

 

Spittin' gravel in my eye

 

 

Geromino Smith splits the road ...

 

 

He's on the warpath like a hornrimmed toad

 

 

Tennessee Ford fumbles for his cell ...

 

 

His car's pumpin' out a God awful smell

 

 

Axelrod Hannah eats a banana ...

 

 

She's on her way to her home in Tarzana

 

 

Boxcar Fannie cuttin' thru the alley ...

 

 

Sneakin' ahead in her mustang called Sally

 

 

Patrolman Steve nails the gas fast

 

 

Chasin' a old beater who's luck just can't last 

 

 

Bozo Jones huggin' the rail

 

 

Crossin' the lines, drivin' by braile

 

 

Speedy Red Wallace revs up his Yugo

 

 

Smokin' a joint with his ole pal Hugo

 

 

Clunker McJumper takes his time

 

 

Poppin' out of gear, he's so nickel & dime

 

 

Volvo Annie breakin' fast

 

 

Rearin' up her big fat a*s

 

 

Blackjack Nancy runnin' her course

 

 

Clumping along like an old steady horse

 

 

Here comes Ethel, she's as safe as a barge

 

I'm back in one piece, she's my hero at large
