Found Poem

Sealed by the Manufacturer

Universal torque assemblies
drivelines out of phase
snapping the same matchmark
a Y-shaped spider

A spun slip joint
the U-joint revolves
a smooth flow of power
the needle roller type

tubular transmissions
designed and built with vibration
absorb speed
a total cancellation

the spider is shaped like a cross

I pulled the elements for this poem from a Chilton's automotive repair manual that I have become very familiar with.
