Rick drove a beater Chevy


Rick drove a beater Chevy
Handed down by a father
Absent to luxury and
Progress

He used to gun it
Over the failing grade
Almost in hopes of
Bottoming out

His huffing chance
To rehab the body
Was clouded in
Critical aerosols

Once the final coat was sprayed
Close in his mother's garage
That one too many
Marlboro, man,
Lit up the joint like
A nova
