by Scott Wiggerman
May we bike a wide expanse of untidy sands,
of outliers and isles of desert brush.
May we ride and ride, our eyes primed
to an iota of wild, a mite of wine
among the tumbleweeds and idle browns:
a bind of thriving cacti. Divine!
May we smile and find a vital prize,
a sign in the uncivilized silence,
a blooming lighthouse, a riot of pink fire,
our desired life, our private tribe.
May we ride inspired while our kind expires.
May we rise above the spineless of these times.
