This is a cherita and was inspired by Writing Wednesday, FOWC: Deteriorate, and this prompt about what is urgent. It’s ironic because I don’t drive and therefore do not have to deal with any “check -engine” lights; however, my human equivalent of a check-engine light is always trying to get my attention. 🙂
If a car’s ‘check-engine’ light is on,
It merits a closer inspection, urgently done,
Before the vehicle deteriorates more.
The human form of a ‘check-engine’ light
Might signify a need for sleep or fuel.
To risk terribly crashing is not cool.

I have to ask, what is a cherita? I have never heard of this form of poetry before. How is it formed? Thanks. 😆

I like this one. Not paying attention to the maintenance you need can lead to a crash for sure.

Even without a car the logic is still the same. Believe it or not , some people are born incapable of suffering .That’s bad because pain is life’s way of telling you that something needs to be fixed. I could talk about this kind of thing so constantly
