ella ruby - in my car

I bought this car with all my savings
I outfit it like a home
I carry my books with me
Lightning Thief and Charlie Bone

And in my glove compartment
Registration by its side
A bottle of my favorite lotion
Mint, lavender, and thyme

In my car my body is mine

I bought this car with all my savings
I keep some firewood in my trunk
A box of matches and newspaper
In case I break down in the dark

An extra gallon of water
A couple blankets, folded square
The seventh book of Harry Potter
I would say I come prepared

In my car my body is mine
But, as it turns out, not all of the time

I bought this car with all my savings
I love it like I love myself
It gave me a sense of safety
To think that I could lock things out

In my car my body was mine
but as it turned out, not all of the time.
