The Ride
Lean into the curve
as the road clings to
the rubber beneath.
Pushing lower,
touching the pavement.
The next curve greets the machine
and you push it back
over again
and again
spinning
twisting
turning
faster,
faster,
faster
and slow again.
As the next curve comes into sight
over to the right
to the left
and back again.
The miles stretch
time slows
as the connection with the road
stretches on.
Alive
a feeling
a sensation
every breath and every move
man and machine,
the road turns
and the connection continues.
Daylight slips away
as the world rapidly slows
every day has an ending
every corner will straighten
the moment ends with the road in the mirror
and your soul savours the sensation.
