Riding the Storm
with the front tyre worn,
more ragged with each turn of the wheel
with the bowed chain clattering
in my mind it is not mattering,
with wet hair peeled back from my eyes;
Late spring rain,
all dressed up,
so snug as a bug in a rug I feel,
Another problem arises I ask myself why,
I lift up my chin & wonder reassured
no one wants to drink from my cup;
Shoulder into the rubber, throttle not making me bored,
Than up like a bird on the wing having soared
final destination I make it that's good
Then if I can make it through dinner,
I can make it through pudding.
