The Borchetta grand prix
Monday
July 20 2026
Nashville
Tennessee
The
Borchetta -bourbon-
Grand prix
with some of
The
fastest cars on the
Planet coursing through
The
raceway at speeds
Over 100
mph
Multitude
of drivers maneuvering to be number one for every lap beneath
The
broiling hazy wildfire
Sun
James Dean
& his Spider
Being from
& a lifetime
Resident
of the Crossroads
Of America
Often I
think about James
Dean &
his sports car
Never
quite knowing
Why it was
such a surprise
When the
Hoosier rebel
Without a
cause
& His
Spider
Went
speeding in to an immortally mangled
Eternity
My dads
old shag wagon
My dad
once had a 1978
351 block
Ford Econoline
Van with
very thick dark
Brown shag
carpet
Eight
track tape deck
Which
everywhere we went
We listen
to Hank Sr and outlaw country in to every
Setting
sun of my childhood
Until its
very memory became a myth of poetics
Littered
with cases of empty
Beer cans
