BICYCLE

                      BICYCLE
           Paddling uphill the untarred road
           to reach the gold magnet
           dust of failure
           clung to my feet
           tap-tap and off it went
           like smokes of the past

           My tyre got stuck
           in a pot-hole
           making my groin ache a little
           dismantling, I noticed
           the tyre's spike had an ass
           and the heat had become
           my second skin

           After the kissing of spanners
           I was up again
           then came the father of all
           Yes, of all the hurricane
           bringing me to a halt
          
           But the sun
           I could still see
           it's rays piercing
           right through me
           awakening the strenght of my legs
           And of all this
           were just God's own test of fire
           to make me a fine steel.
