Biker Poet Wisdom

Biker Style

In LifeCertain things are black n white
No room for compromise
Straddlin’ thunder, feels good down under
Nirvana for the thighs

You see
There exists no sure fire methods
Grand schemes may take awhile
So, take a hint, a leather blueprint
Do it ‘Biker Style’

Dance abreast a well endowed chest
Accept all it may entail
Gettin’ slapped, feelin’ trapped
Knowing when to bail
Take your time, make it rhyme
Leave ‘em with a smile
Better to be, a fond memory
All due to ‘Biker Style’

One must
Always be the gentleman
Stopping short of being en vogue
Enjoy the dance of circumstance
Ladies prefer a rogue

Take not
Unless freely given
Be grateful for having the chance
In life, to succeed, one must take the lead
Be willing to try, the dance

And thus
Dance abreast a well endowed chest
Accept all it may entail
Gettin’ slapped, feelin’ trapped
Knowing when to bai
lTake your time, make it rhyme
Leave ‘em with a smile
Better to be, a fond memory
All due to ‘Biker Style’

Wrinkles and Roads

Wrinkles and Roads

I've faced my demons, more than once

Spit against the wind

Walked on water, so I thought

Ventured into sin

Moved the Earth, a time or two

Ate my share of dirt

Spurned the gift of life itself

Death whispered its flirt

Wrinkles travel upon my face

As lines from a weathered map

Roads destined to end at fate

Time, the eternal trap

Wisdom sprouts from failed seeds

Lessons to be learned

Still waters, run deeper still

When bridges have been burned

I'm not one to dwell upon

Choices left behind

I choose to see what lies ahead

For hindsight can be blind

Wrinkles travel upon my face

Reflecting roads of past

I pray to ever taste the wind

The roads, to ever last

Biker 101

Biker 101

What is a Biker?

Is it someone who's clearly defined?,

or a perception, merely a state of mind?

Who is a Biker?

One portrayed in movies, through hype?,

or entrapped within a stereotype?

When is a Biker?

24/7 from head to boot?,

or the weekend warrior, who sheds his suit?

Why is a Biker?

Fulfilling a preordained legacy?,

or simply indulging fantasy?

Where is a Biker?

As for me, it couldn't be clearer,

all I need do is look in the mirror.

Left or Right
By Wild Bill © 2005 all rights reserved

Simple sounds this day of spring
Cold steel turning warm
Rhythm sets my mind to roam
Direction starts to form

With not a thought my foot descends
A click and kick is felt
Hand relaxed, gears engage
Power takes the belt

Motion starts in a roll
Butterflies descend
Colors bright, shoulders tight
Feeling starts to blend

Left or right is on the mind
Decision is defaulted
A cage is rushing up on me
All the motion halted

Familiar turns are easy
Follow an older trail
Dare I take another track
Where shadows are not stale

Left or right is in the air
Heads or tails the gamble
Fate then takes its proper place
And down the road I amble.

Old Guy's Biker Wisdom

American Novelist Wisdom

"And I to my motorcycle
Parked like the soul of the junkyard
Restored, a bicycle fleshed
With power, and tore off
Up Highway 106 continually
Drunk on the wind in my mouth
Wringing the handlebar for speed
Wild to be wreckage forever." - James Dickey
