Chrome intake gleams beside the grill
Copper kettle sings a steady trill
Torque wrench clicks on a hardened bolt
Biscuit dough rises golden malt
Blue flame breakfast feeds the night
Nitrous breathes in morning light
Wrench and whisk in quiet accord
Freedom hums on a two-lane chord
Vinyl stool holds a grease-stained coat
Socket set rests on a tea-cup note
Regulars laugh at a short-order joke
Exhaust note coughs a low rev smoke
Blue flame breakfast feeds the night
Nitrous breathes in morning light
Wrench and whisk in quiet accord
Freedom hums on a two-lane chord
Pressure gauge climbs a silver needle
Steam curls soft from a porcelain beetle
Cast iron skillet pops bacon fat
Highway stretch waits for wheels to spat
Blue flame breakfast feeds the night
Nitrous breathes in morning light
Wrench and whisk in quiet accord
Freedom hums on a two-lane chord
Yellow line paints the dawn sky pale
Mechanic tips his coffee veil
Engine roars a satisfied growl
Diner door swings on a final towel
Blue flame breakfast feeds the night
Nitrous breathes in morning light
Wrench and whisk in quiet accord
Freedom hums on a two-lane chord
Blue flame breakfast feeds the soul
Open road makes the broken whole
Kettle whistles through the quiet air
Engine settles in the morning glare
