Ah....you must be across the moat. MOT stands for Ministry Of Transport. It is a legal requirement that all cars not nicked have an MOT certificate to ensure roadworthiness. This usually involves getting your car "serviced" prior to the MOT test...again, this does not apply to stolen vehicles which do not require an MOT certificate as they do not require insurance either. Wish you had never asked? Well,you are none the wiser but you are better informed.

Your poem did not suck.

You, sir, are a gentleman.

Hopefully this is an improvement.

Ranks broken,
the deciduous force fails
in the face of marching evergreens,
while the stream that cowers at their feet
will serve victor and loser alike.
Yet the stream too is sure to die,
though at the hands of the sun,
not by strangling root.
And as rabbits are eaten by crueller things
I’m eaten from within by hungry Age,
and will soon lie still
at conquering coniferous root.


I've dropped the rhyme scheme and halved the length. Most of the same images in my head, in the same order.
