Ode to a 1984 Audi GT Coupe

Back to square one. My foray into "writing a whole song" was a whole lot more work than I imagined... and terribly frustrating... so I'm back to writing fragments. Today's is a simple meditation on the gold Audi that I owned during my undergrad years in Olympia. If I'm stretching myself in any way here... it's probably in the pacing. This tune is a little faster than my typically glacial bpm. But not so fast as to get a speeding ticket.
