A miniature human with a radiant smile and satin skin. Her old man worked the oil fields and afforded his Sportster tank painted by George Wild. Her one mission was to collect it in her rusting VW bug.
The magnificent flames glistened on the modified tank. George attempted to fondle the satin button, the tank nearly becoming a weapon. A weakness for abandoned pets steered her off course. The tank became the object of potential scratches and drooling dogs. Groceries dislodged and a fender bender nearly hurled the candy flames.
Still that night a brother rode to club church with a brilliant smile on his face. She made it.
