In our poem of the week, Gina Valdés offers this vivid description of her experiences on the roads of California with some good Samaritans who stop in their “smooth-running carcacha” to get her “not-so-smooth-running carcacha” going again.  This poem is from the just released Winter Issue of Third Wednesday.  That’s not Gina’s car in the photo but it looks like the car I see in her poem.
