The elements curse me
Just as I curse them
Of my simple humanity
A brutal lethargy
Willingly exposed,
I roll into the white abyss
As the man-made towers
Seem to genuflect
Under the callous indifference
Of a blank, grey sky
The bleakness manifested
In the bloodless mountains
The stark ashes of a
comatose city
They crawl and inch
while I ride
The abyss still beckons
Beyond reason, nature continues
Condemned
To this four-wheeled
Hell planet
The rolling coffins
A two-wheeled, human-powered Pegasus
Is liberation
From the
Human condition
The funeral procession
Continues on our
Highways
As they vomit death
Into the skies
A web of battlefields
Littered with
Cannon fodder
The heavens spit
Back at us
Man and machine become one
A two-wheeled stiletto
cutting through human error
Our mechanical unity
Brings life
Your technology consumes
Whilst bringing your own doom
A single entity of uselessness
We pedal against the tide
Our mechanical unity
Brings life
A flower blossoming
Amongst twisted machines
