Oh America

The truck sat abandoned

Nascar in season
The patriotic blindness
Shields the eyes of
Common artistic creativity

The True American Hero

has too much alcohol

paint

and other materials

that Dr. Frankenstein
employed

Slurring and Stuttering,
The True American Hero
created a Beast

Poor abandoned Truck
Set free
due to, of course
the price of gasoline
