After a Change

I have changed a tire,
And ended greased and marred.

The black streaks of the road
Nestled firmly in my oxford,
I strolled out from the lot
Such a masculine accomplisher.

My grip burnt around new tools
While my head buzzed with instruction.

Broadening the smile
With a surge of archaic confidence,
My ruined hands decreed
Something wrong went right,
And I wore the grime to prove it.
