E-Brakes at WSU

I pushed a car from a parking space today
The Driver,
he was an old man
wizened in years and education
a friendly smile
a grateful wave.


But still he had problems
moving
once freed from the snow
on flat pavement
conversed with ice


until my friend realized his folly!
I had to go into my car
to not laugh
at the wizened man
with a friendly smile
and friendly wave.


But how often have we
spun out with our front wheels
while our backs
are still held by the E-brake?
