CYCLISTS

CYCLISTS

Why do they cycle in the middle of the road,

Or hog the white line,

Go when the lights red

And sometimes stop when they are green,

And steer with their knees

While their hands are doing something obscene?

FRIGHTENING THE CROWS

 

            FRIGHTENING THE CROWS

            I once knew a man

            Who frightened crows for a living.

            In between, he brewed cheap beer

            And stole old books.

            He cycled the universe

            Looking for answers;

            All he found was a cold grave

            When he was thirty nine.
