986 Poetry

[Jager]

The precious two, inlet air and purging fire,
The first my throttle, the other my desire;

Both are with thee, wherever I drive,
Always growling, especially turn five;

For when these are gone,
Life stops, I feel very alone;

Then next race day, all recurred,
Back again, happiness assured;

By swift Boxster they return'd to thee,
Blowing air and blazing flames, recounting into me;

With these thoughts, driving makes me glad,
But without air or fire, I would be very, very, sad.

How can I survive the IMS plight?
When a failure can happen, day or night;

Why be debarr'd of a good night’s rest?
Worrying about failure, my thoughts always oppress'd;

Each bearing, OEM or aftermarket reign,
One fails by toil, the other extreme price pain;

Constant thoughts torture me,
How far will IMS bearing labor for thee?

I say myself to keep thoughts bright,
Flatter thy nine-eight-six, day and night;

But doth this make the IMS bearing last longer?
No! Racing thy Boxster every day and night makes the IMS bearing stronger!

I once bought a box from PA;
I flew to it that very day.
When I got there alas,
It was all out of gas,
So I only could drive a short way.

When I got there I drove it all night,
The experience was such a delight.
But the first thing I see,
When I enter NC,
Is the glow of the check engine light.

But luckily all ended well,
As the folks on this forum did tell,
With some luck and some smarts,
And some Pelican parts,
Bid adieu to the dang CEL.

Why does my Boxster create so much owner pride?
After all this time, walking away I still glance aside;

Far from variation or thoughts to change,
Newly-found models seem to be a little strange;

Why still drive thy nine-eight-six, always the same?
Because every exhaust note calls my name;

Why bother buying something new, tis money well spent?
Performance and reliability, still an argument;

Steering, balance and control, nothing can compare,
The exquisite sounds of thy M96 mid-engine are quite rare;

O, Boxster, I take much owner pride in you,
For my best, dressing old parts to make look new;

For as the sun is daily, new and old,
So is my joy driving nine-eight-six, never to be sold.
