Kyle Hemmings

    This is not your father’s Oldsmobile, the one with a transmission called a Hydro-Matic. That car could travel. This is only a photo, a still of appearances, shades of grey. Time doesn’t lie. But it doesn’t tell the truth either. For only one freeze-frame of time, did you remotely resemble, Liz Taylor in National Velvet. This is you back when you wanted to be. Desire was perfect in itself.

    While your father was trying to polarize a 6-volt regulator, you imagined your heart with four terminals. You even labeled each one with letters. You pictured your father connecting each jumper wire, alligator clip, to the correct terminal. He could do it blindfolded. You had a weak heart. He said in time, it would need a mechanic. What? you said. He meant the car.
