I want smooth curves, a stunning side profile, and a glimmer at every turn.

I want that efficiency, I want to be highly maintained, and similarly as rare.

I am Filipino, but I am American made.

I want the body of a Tesla.

I wish I could shut up.

I wish I could talk about other People instead of myself.

I wish my sentences didn't start with I.

I wish I was as quiet as a Tesla.

I'd color correct the giraffe mosaic and fine tune the scales down.

I wish I looked like a Tesla.

I wish my Logo was the bubblegum cap on a Kitten's snout.

Its triangle nose The piercing icon on the forefront of a real work of art.

I want the body of a Tesla, but then again-

I can buy one of those.

I can't buy one of mine
