Handlebars

handlebar connected to the
hand bone

hand bone connected to the
steering bone

steering bone disconnected from the
thinking bone

here’s what’s going on in my mind

in a swamp naked captured
by beautiful naked amazons

wait in their reed prison
naked dirty and tied

they will come
play torture with me
safe forever in their hands

so friendly I eventually
get to join their gang

capture others
no one gets older
play the same game

bumping down the toepath
along the side of the Lagan
