Poor ghosts. They lose all concept of time.

I stood there
alone
in the rain
staring at the sad image
of a bicycle
that marked the tragic end
of a life too short

Anger
frustration
and fear
that someday
one might mark
where I fell

I cannot stop riding
but I feel the loss
of all those who
were cut down
and pray that
someday
somehow
the slaughter
will end

For Austin

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
‘Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
RIP Fred

Ha! Strip changing during the day…
I won’t be on THAT ride tonight, as there isn’t one organized locally. However, I’m “out there” on my bike everyday, riding to work etc. … and, not only, but -also- for those lost, prayer flags wave behind me and one special “mantra” spins around written on the rim of my front wheel…

I’ll be out there tonight. Sadly, a coworker was lost this year.

‘Ride of Silence’ – in honour of the fallen – especially Fred! RIP

(The only good things being his ghost helping Yehuda in the fire etc…)
