gibonize

to reduce to its essence.
to strip to its guts.
to remove everything that is not essential.

he had a nice jeep, and then he gibonized it.
he removed the doors, the dashboard, the seats,
the windshield, the tailgate, he didn't stop
until there was nothing left but the pureness
of it - a running jeep that would truly go
anywhere, with very little, on very little.
