The chain was a ribbon of rivets, slick as an owl's snot,
The bulb was a ghostly halogen, its filament glowing hot,
The road was a sinew of darkness, but my light was steady and bright.
My frame was the color of egg yolk,
The moonlight glint from my wheel spoke
As I savored the spin of my pedal stroke, into the jeweled night
