Riding Bikes with Jack Spicer

I can never take the angels seriously

slumped in the drunk banana seat
wheeling toward a middle-distance finish
with a storm of chrome and peddling
your feet frenzy the light
as in mirrors, refracted, revealed

light is truly nothing
without the air in your mouth
your lips
and that which baffles beautifully behind you
