Pakaru

The car is at the garage

The engine is Kaput

Another worry in the bag

And now it won’t stay shut.

We appear to haemorrhage money

There’ll soon be nothing left

It isn’t remotely funny

Friends family fortitude bereft.

Pakaru and redundant

For all my story’s worth

Broken beyond replacement

Nothing left but mirth.
