A Mechanic Did That Thing (Bussokusekika)



A Mechanic Do That Thing   (Bussokusekikac

I am quite concerned
They used an impact on Blu
On his right side front
And they didn’t torque his bolts
That’s the first time in my life
A mechanic did that thing

About this poem

Well…I’ve been working on cars for over 50 years and maybe I am just being paranoid…But I really don’t believe that I am being paranoid…I hope nothing happens to Blu’s R front…Only time will tell…After all I should be dead if I were anyone other than who I am…I was telling my son that the powers that be are probably shitting theirselves after the two accidents I’ve lived through in less than a months time…So much for the universal chaos theory and the odds of probability…But then again what do I know???Ive seen you can adjust camber by doing such a thing…But like I’ve said I did not witness the mechanic retighten those bolts and I know I didn’t see him use a torque wrench to retorque those bolts he loosened with an impact gun…Go figure…It’s been said that the third time is the charm…
