What my father smelled like

I'd like to say he smelled like Old Spice

Or a pipe

Or aftershave

But he wasn't one for any of those things

He smelled like oil

From always fixing the car

The lawnmower

The taps

The home that just wouldn't quit quitting

He smelled like a man

Just trying to keep it all together
