Like Brancusi’s “Bird in Space”:  Think McLaren P1, Ferrari 458, Lamboghini Countach, Maserati MC12, Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport, Ferrari F40, and Koenigsegg Agera R

It’s more like on the pedestal of art,

Smooth knife glissando cutting through the night

Of motor theory, more a Descartes

Of thought, less like a swaying satellite

Than like the glisten of a comet, sex

Without the weight and mess. Its wheels spin, harsh,

But like a spirit. It is like God’s flex,

That fourth day fling of stars before the marsh

Of low creation.  Cam shaft we do not

Desire to see.  We conjure it inside

The elegance.  We want this yacht

To sail.  We want it like a yearning bride

Desires the thrust of power.  She does

Not need to see.  We want that slickest buzz.
