Reads Well as a poem
had a beautiful summer here in Canada
came on a Tuesday now that's all over
nice to not suffer apocalyptic wildfires
but the ticks were apoplectic never
fails but you venture into the bush with
your sweetie a little worse for the wear
inand she picks up a 300 kill a click
tick don't make no nevermind or creed
gasser diesel they're all junk broke
down by the side of the road this
particular ones surviving on the laurels
of glories bygone the best infernal
combustion engine ever SQUOZE out of a
Detroit City Friday afternoon shift 1 8
4 3 6 5 7 2 Rams wilfully issued only
dickheads drive dodge some bitumen
statement loyal Burton sled neck glass
fast you do in a buck 60 trailer for
Less skid whose spitting rocks and
he's driving a Dodge schadenfreude ugly
rapidly Paul seeing I'm tits up in the
rhubarb when you realize you'll be
crawling pastas Coquihalla summit red
plate yard sale for hours don't be silly
still gonna send it we gave you
Flatlanders part of the Rockies for a
reason what'd you come here for tick
removal your want to ignore that
loathsome engine speed dependent noise
seeing is how it comes and goes as the
engine warms up it's a mere trifle to
drown it out with angry teenage music
from your glory days nothing more
ennobling lee ignoble than blasting rage
against the machine driving to work at a
evil Omni Corp in your gas drinkin
piston Clank and air pollutant smoke
belching four-wheel buggy from Detroit's
Eddy I'm here to tell you a partner
ignore the signs at your peril deep in
your valve train a hydraulic lifter is
self-destructing either it's sticky
rolling or hydraulically collapse and
slams into the cam lobe slowly steadily
this burnell's the roller and Spall's
the case hardening off the cam one easy
trick big Lube doesn't want you to know
harvest your own for free from the
bottom of the pan congratulations you're
making homebrew never cease the
ancestral time-tested fix from time
immemorial
add engine oil change that engine oil
for thicker engine oil add STP die
engine thick goop assorted snake oils
and sundry voodoo charms and rattles
turn up the radio and ignore for a
minimum of six months remove a single
head and inspect every lifter but the
one that's stuck in the hole reassemble
and hide surplus fasteners take it to a
mechanic proclaiming I've tried nothing
and I'm all out of ideas bulk at the
discount shop rate you already tried to
fix it and it up limp ohm to
remove heads replace camshaft and single
faulty lifter vowing to never buy that
brand vehicle again in an ill-conceived
effort to economize legal tender reuse
torque to yield head bolts complain to
all and sundry that you're brand new
head gaskets are leaking repeat by
annually until a new set of used tires
is worth more than the truck and that is
how Canadians stay safe from ticks
