Ode to a New Clutch

New clutch, you saved my car
It was on the verge of being replaced
And was working my nerves with its high gas consumption
But you’ve changed that, oh new clutch
And I am grateful.

New clutch, I did not have to manhandle you
Or strain my shoulder to put you in reverse
Or overwork my left pedal foot
Because you run so smoothly
And I am grateful.

New clutch, in conjunction with my new tires
You have saved me from the grief and pain
Of breaking down on the highway
Where no one stops to help except those stupid trucks that are never there
And I am grateful.

New clutch, now I feel safe
On my ridiculous commute
And I avoided having to make car payments
Which pleases me as I am cheap
And I am grateful.
