Poetry in motion
By Dan Neil, Times Staff Writer
April marks the 10th annual observance of National Poetry Month, established by the Academy of American Poets to increase the visibility, presence and accessibility of poetry in our culture. In that spirit, Dan Neil has written his weekly column in verse.
Attend me well, lords and ladies,
And my song of brave Mercedes,
A company that`s struggled a bit, of late,
With reliability most unfortunate.
Though recent reports from J.D. Power
Have been as depressing as Schopenhauer,
One thing our fathers found,
You can`t keep a German in a lab coat down.
Recently, models like the CLS
Have wowed the inky motor press,
And returned a luster to Stuttgart`s star,
And made us exclaim, "Ja, wunderbar!"
And now comes Mercedes` revised two-seater,
A dream for the O.C.`s lotus eaters.
SLK350, a name most alphanumeric,
Tho` I would have preferred something more Homeric.
With a style borrowed from the F1 paddock,
Sweeping, aggressive, dramatic, pneumatic.
The new car is handsomer than one could hope,
Making the former look like homemade soap.
Not quite a coupe, roadster or cabriolet,
The problem is what to call the SLK.
"Retractable hardtop" is an ugly phrase,
There ought to be better nowadays.
How about "morph-top" or "flexi-lid"?
Or "variable parasol" — God forbid!
Call it what you like, one thing`s for sure,
We`re not in canvas anymore.
For those who have struggled with the limp salute
Of British cars` leaky bumbershoots,
The Benz`s top cannot compare
With anything other than Tupperware.
It takes 22 seconds, more or less,
To peel back the aluminum firmament.
One touch of a button and a ballet ensues,
A dance of servos, augers and screws.
Although convertibles are quite debonair,
They can wreck your carefully constructed hair.
But the Benz`s clever aero sculpts a space
To keeps one`s artful coiffure in place.
Should you have an extra dollar,
And suffer from a chilly collar, may I suggest
the (optional) headrests, vented,
For drop-top comfort unprecedented.
Under the hood of the old car`s replacement
Is 3.5 liters of high-tech displacement,
Arranged in a "V" — offering more cams, valves
and horsepower than previously.
No blowers this year, no Germanic "Kompressors,"
No teakettle whistles to mark the aggressors.
Just naturally aspirated torque, and lots of it,
That thing among car geeks that is most beloved.
If five manual gears seem too paltry to touch,
The mini-Merc offers six and a clutch.
Dropping said clutch with proper esprit
Will get you to 60 in 5.3.
The cockpit is warm, cozy and sleek,
Tho` if I may suggest so boldly a tweak,
Lose the silver finish on buttons and controls
And other drossy rigmarole.
Tho` power, braking and handling are cool,
They mean little in Malibu`s motor pool.
It`s all about style, mo` hotter, mo` better,
To flatter some studio`s fast-talking go-getter.
For this the K car is admirably suited,
And for anyone whose sentence is commuted
along the 5, or the 10, or the 405,
Or anywhere in the L.A. hive.
If you should long for the car of last year,
There`s really no cause for shedding of tears.
You can still find the car you so much admire.
It`s under the skin of the Chrysler Crossfire!
