Slow Leak

I have a slow leak in my spirit.
Gradually, I lose air.
Sometimes if I park just so,
I’m flat in a moment’s notice.
Tire kickers annoy the pejeezus out of me.
Knocking my breath out in random jerks.
But once in a blue moon,
Someone comes along
Willing to risk his lips at the hole,
And to blow.
