Alrighty then…. I don’t think my college creative writing credits stand justice to this. You win.
Therein lies the problem. Never surrender your imagination to the institution. Or to anything else, for that matter.:)

Until you put your finger in it. :)
I doubt you can move your finger fast enough to "in" it. You can only barely touch the surface and the force destroys the skin off your finger and knocks you away.

I wonder what 8,250 RPM looks like in the hand-built 5.2L V8 — nicknamed Voodoo for its dark magic, menacing and intoxicating allure.

I know what it feels like, sounds like. The heart-pounding, adrenaline-rush of a roaring beast unleashed.

Wicked as a banshee in heat.

That quivering, giddy feeling rushes through your veins as she hustles you into the forbidden, uninhabited regions of triple-digit MPH.

But if we could see inside, at the vitals of this ferocious, naturally aspirated, savage hoodoo heathen, what would her 8,250 RPM look like?

Injectors spitting volcanic toxin, like the angry lashing tongue of a venomous serpent.

The explosive energy and hellish brilliance of internal combustion up close and demonically frightful.

Its crazy flat-plane crankshaft revving at bedazzling revolutions, its pistons pounding with punishing force, its dual cams rocking their resiling valves.

Is there a sharp definition to this dinosaur feasting mechanical monster churning eighty-two-fifty to the naked eye? Or would it appear as a spellbinding blur on the precipitous verge of disintegration, bracing to fly apart?
Edgar Poe!.. where have you been?

While the imagination remains, the will wanes. :like:

Fair enough.

Earth-rattling roar
Blazing clouds, burning rubber
Mustang mania

Your Tesla is quick
But it doesn’t sound like this
Ninty-three octane
I'd drive the Shelby
But gas doesn't grow on trees
It's from dinosaurs

Yay, it is payday!
Fill 'er up. The engine roars.
Time to hit the road.

First corner, here we come.
What a blast. See ya suckers!
Oh damn, there's traffic.

uh, well, uh, I believe the toxin comes from the fangs, not the tongue.
