If only
There is nothing
else to do
other than
stay up late
drinking beer
and listening
to music.
Work will come
with the morning
as it always
has.
I will say yes
to men I do not care about.
And I will be paid
to do it.
What I want to do
is put drop bars
on my geared
twenty-niner
and tear the
gears
right
off
her.
I know
that she will
love me more for it
if
I only had
the brake levers
to finish the job.
check out Sleeping It Off In Rapid City by August Kleinzahler;i haven’t either
I told you I have the levers.
…well now, that kinda fucks up yer little poem, don’t it ???…
I had no idea you were in that kind of work.
Heeey that’s perrty funny, cuz i just got my niner running after last fall when i had drop bars on ‘er and snapped pretty much clear through the top tube.. I’ll tell ya, when you look through a crack around 80 % of your 853 top tube, it kind of gives you a scary conception of just how thin that steel is.. aanyway just got done switching the 25 c’s onto said niner, and pretty much am gonna put that drop bar back on.. probably with aero bars.. and since i’m 26 and better not not stomp it.. ride from coast to coast after sswc.. sheeet. tomorrow we’ll just ride to camp via the liquor store..
Listen to Slappy cousin…”Ride to camp via the liquor store”.It don’t matter what rig ya run neither.A baby carrier,missus Jonny and a small friendly campfire.Shit man,domestic tranquility.Or all yer dirtbag cronies…hehehe.Tomorrow is time to think of those dicks ya gotta suck…
