morning ride

pushing/pulling pedals
poetry in motion
this morning's mountain pose
now grounded on tiny metal platforms
hovering in cyclical orbits

light/heat radiating
between the remnants of night
illuminating the city
and it's halo
enlightening the mind
and it's halo
shining upon the faces of passersby
and their halos

pulling/pushing pedals
two hollow tubes roll
putting a pillow of air
between me and the earth
levitating in perpetual motion
