Ode to a Homeless Black Man Riding a Black Bicycle While Wearing a Black Helmet With a Jack in the Box Clown Head on Top

(by the_dude)

In a rush, you race, reckless
and sure
You do not have time for those who
meander or mingle
Speed!

Confidence you have.
Purpose is yours.
Vigor
Questions I have.
Why Jack in the Box?
Your destination?
Mystery

Ride on Black Knight!
Acquit yourself with honor and victory
shall be yours.
Who can stand for long against the clown?
Ciabatta sandwiches - for reals.

the_dude flirts with poetic perfection in these resplendent lines. Look upon his works, ye mighty, and despair.
