Harley-Davidson
85th Anniversary Homecoming Contemplation

out of the Kenosha holding strip
onto 94  with all areas alongside

covered by  raised fists  &  victory
then on p. 43 of the HD magazine I

find my Harley racing orange  front
fender in that photo coming around

the bend in back & my beard sprouting
out from the black helmet --- well being

there in June  &  here now in my office
between appointments just from buying

this to read & opening my napkin
to keep sandwich crumbs off that

front fender it coming at me
as I was upon it with cycles

behind in columns roaring
& such lovely ladies with

leather  fringe sparkling
upon the interstate path

into Milwaukee Iron
coming home I rode:

a pack of Strokers
at my side & front

to rear  passion
burning V-Twins

in the mystical
gas tank logos'

signatures    that
chant the poems

I cannot write.
