I speak to her in paragraphs
no words pass between us
she slaps my face hard
without lifting a finger
I think oh yes
send me another gift
like this mental strawberry
in the shape of a perfect hand

A new motorcycle
is like a new woman,
hell on the adrenals,
something you wake up
knowing is all yours,
sexy with big
thick springs in back
and a buddy seat;
or, ladies,
a new motocycle
is like a new man,
sleek and macho
a growler -
a really dumb thing
to bring home.
