Baiku
riding through small town
rocket ship on some guy's lawn
mine flys on pavement
despite best effort
summer turns fall turns winter
patience, wait for spring
something in back squeaks
when idling at a red light
nuts must be tightened
pneumatic front fork
pneumatic seat and rear shocks
to air is human
cast iron wheel no spoke
fuel-injected has no choke
technophobe in hell
riding thunder iron
storm traffic invisible
blessed underpass
river is low but
in spring the water rises
I wouldn't park there
