A repeat it is
in these COVID times
everything has changed
though everything stays

It’s only a car
Bush Radio’s Blues Doctor
relates an incident
of a visiting friend’s one
liberated alarms and all

It’s only a car
worldly goods
not the fancy
your higher-ups
flash around in

(we’ve heard it before
it’s a repeat programme
to be played again
as these matters go)

It’s only a car
life comes first
(the doctors say)
then the other stuff
in our material world

It’s only a car

Sunday night’s Bush Radio Blues in the Bush (89.5 FM) gets a repeat.
