This is, actually, a Senryu, Matt 🤭

But, what the hey!
Under any name it's good … besides, I relate to it from my own youthful insanity of blasting my entire neighborhood's eardrums out from the woofers 'n tweeters squeezed into my olde Chevy; not mentioning the twin Smitty exhausts that blatted so loud they and got the dogs ta singing along (howling).

Brought some fun times back … UM! ⁓ Richard 🍃

Very nice use of words and thoughts. I still play my music loud, when I can Matt. Hello from Michigan and thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

Reminded me of Bob Marley, "We're jammin'" ... An older guy with those big car speakers of the 70's. Really enjoyed the imagery in the Haiku.

Sounds a bit like Mick Jagger and many other aging rockstars. You have to know when to turn off that radio. One song too many and those speakers blow and so does the reputation. :)

This makes me think of my boyfriend. He loves to drive and listen to music. That’s why we love road trips so much. Your poem reminds me of him and I think that’s sweet. Lovely words, they bring an instant image to the reader. I also love haikus

his speakers long blown

What imagery your senryu gifts. I see an aging rocker, deep lines on his face, lived life to the full and dangerously. Those speakers could tell a tale or two, yet alone the noise that must have deafened anyone in close vicinity.

Packed full mattavelli.

Ah, this brings vivid imagery with it :)Those speakers must have seen and heard some times - does he care the speakers are long gone or are they his favourites with memories attached and hard to give up or is his hearing now impaired from the good times the tunes helped him travel him through life's journeys :) Brings many thoughts this piece, lovely mattavelli :)
