Barbed Wire & Rust

@barbedwireandrust

NONE OF THESE GIFS, IMAGES, PICS, VIDS ARE MY OWN! Not the header, avatar; Hell, even the moniker and title was stolen from a Creed Fisher song. I'm a simple, mid-forties male from out west viewing and posting things that I like and relate to.

The spark plugs are gone; there’s no fire inside  Her pistons long idle, her spirit has died  She rusts in dishonor, not even a grave  In reward for the service she gave  In a field back of nowhere, abandoned, alone  Been robbed of the seat that was used as a throne  No one to sing to the song of the gears  Everything’s gone with the years…  In her prime she could plow fifteen acres a day  The binder in fall was considered as play  With full tanks she’d boldly strike out at the dawn  Be there until last light had gone.  One way or harrows, she didn’t much care  The belt pull of harvest when fall’s in the air  Her real work, revealing what lay below ground  Each new year when spring rolled around
