Twice Told Tales

The dealership after winter looks like dreams come true
new bikes warm and gleaming on the showroom floor
used bikes for sale in front of the store
after a few moments more
battery charged
fresh synthetic oil and
washed like the day it was born
mine is rolled from the storage garage
a huge guy helped reseat my saddlebags because I’d forgotten how
Dawn helped with the zippers on my chaps
after a few miles I remembered the electronic windscreen and handgrip heat
the world a little older
rotating under
the motorcycle seat.
