raze he rode the yellow line
hugging the small space between cars
the slowest moving thing
on the rainbow of wet road
there
then not there
then an unanswered question
left to percolate

CheapVodka It seems as tho it's impossible.
People stare.
I'm riding, no handlebars.
I let the feeling take me over.
I flap my arms as if they're wings.
What is causing this feeling of control?
Perhaps it's not an unknown entity, but me.
My balance is taking over.
It's been about a kilometer.. and I'm straight killin it!
The I start to lose control..
and I realize it's up to me all along.
Not some unseen mastermind,
but just my own ability to control.

'ring ring' (imagine the joyful sound of my bell)

Will it scare away the demons of biking?

tender_square she and i haven't been friends in nearly a decade. in our last email i'd told her i had gotten my first poem published, because i was proud of achieving something i had worked hard for, and she never responded. i dreamt of her the other night. she needed help and so i gave her my bike to get around while she stayed in a micro apartment. but then i saw the bike on display at a pawn shop; she had hawked it and tricked me, used the money she got for being strung out. she had also managed to sell my father's cougar to the same place. i begged the shopkeeper to give them back, they weren't my former friend's to market, they couldn't profit off of something that wasn't their right to own, could they? 230910
