Failure

Ease up
Side by
Side. Yes (actually
I have no
Idea).

Too far ahead of car
Next to me.
But perhaps
Not. Okay,
Back it up, nice and slow.

Turn, she
Tells me.
Yeah (somebody else
Is controlling this).

Turn-
Ing. Turning.
Curb, that’s
Definitely the curb
Behind my back wheel.

No problem. Push forward
And turn. Spin that wheel, she says
(where are the pats on the back?)
(or the horse whip?).

I know! Now back and
Spin!
No progress

Three
More
Tries

Same result

I
Can’t
Parallel
Park

Period

Nice. I enjoyed this piece. After several months of driving to work and finding street parking, I still... can't parallel park.
