Ode to an Alternator.

For a decade you toiled,
til you could no longer turn.
The years have gone by,
and in the end did you spurn.
A marriage and divorce,
of both you have seen.
California and Florida,
to both you have been.
I bid you farewell on your journey home,
glad tidings to the new, fresh from AutoZone.

And it only lasted 180,000 miles.
They don't make em like they used to ;-)
