  Ode to the AAA Guy
by Susan Parsons

I could spend some stanzas describing
the way he bent over my tire,
displaying two identical
fat, hairy butt cheeks before
reaching between his legs
for the long, twisting
yellow hose he used to inflate my inner
tube. But I’ll keep it simple.
Chivalry is not dead. It just
comes at a price of sixty bucks a year.
