Fast on a bike





Speed Makes a Disconnect, and Makes me small.

I was so incredibly jealous
that you were so fast
you were yourself

so angry was my frustration
being at the stoplight on my bike next to you
thought i'd get a head start by breaking the law and going through the red
but there was no way anyway and I knew it

you looked at me through your helmet visor and jetted off
so fucking fast

like I had no idea you could go that fast.

Before I blinked
before I had time to make a word you were gone around the corner and I was left in the middle of the street
on my bike

pedeling is
the road is long

why can't I go that fast?
Why don't I have a motorcycle?

If I did it would just be me and the night
and i'd leave you behind.
