The Bicycle Gods

Spokes protest the clamor
Ragged tires spitting the gravel behind
Stuck in a pattern now, servant to the flickering light

Singing bells battle and stammer
All in a run swimming toward the hive mind
We’re swerving left now we’re braking and we’re circling right

Smell the wood pulp, the grass mulch, the chain rust, in all these I trust
Like a child must

We’re on the downhill
Let loose the words into the air
Feel the wind grow with all we say
And on the downhill
You can whisper whatever you will
Send a prayer through the alleyways

In a rush to see the concrete spent
I’m shifting down now making a blur of the ground
I’m dodging stares ducking shadows as the bodies abound

But around me, all confounded
Silk suits emerge from galvanized steel
I’m looking up for the gods of the pedal and wheel

See the crosswalk swell, this pack can’t tell if they’re wrong or they’re right
Like a child might

We’re on the downhill
When we speak words into the wind
Feel them join together straightaway
And on the downhill
You can whisper whatever you will
Say a prayer even though we

We won’t get what we ask for but we’ll say it anyway
Let’s pray to something new

We’re on the downhill
Unafraid and under the wing
Of the new world deities
And from a standstill
You can whisper whatever you will
Send a plea through the alleyways
