Untitled ("I got an old Bonniville heare, yellow")

By Jack Joseph Smith

I got an old Bonniville heare, yellow of course The crazy son of a gun cut the top off with his blown touech I said, "now why did you go and do that" And he said, " so the movies wouldn't be first." I like driving it to where not even young lovers go When he falls down in the desert he will fall ontop of one of theese saplings That is where the dear rich up between the trees and nibble their supper Then down to the creek It is sort of like picking corn and sipping whisky

GPT

The speaker describes a yellow Bonniville with its top cut off, repeats an explanation about getting ahead of the movies and drives beyond places where young lovers go.

The speaker connects the altered car with saplings, feeding animals and a creek, then compares the outing with picking corn and sipping whisky. The imagined fall belongs to the poem's account; it gives no basis for identifying the speaker or confirming an accident.

The speaker says 'I got an old Bonniville heare, yellow', 'The crazy son of a gun cut the top off / with his blown touech', reports '"now why did you go and do that"', and ends 'It is sort of like / picking corn and sipping whisky'.

The story of a cut-down car turns into a quiet picture of deer at dusk. The overstruck cells in 'touech' and 'theese' are kept with e, and the man is not identified.
