muttering obscenities and small prayers
under my breath
i crank the steering wheel to the right and left
bite my lip, crane my neck
i fishtail my way into the space
pull the parking brake, exhale,
step out to check the state
of this desperate parking job
i drove five times around the block
before finding this awkward spot
each bumper's gently wedged against
it's neighbor, but no scratches, then
a woman walks by and says "hey,
did you just do that? that's better than
anything i've ever seen from a man"
