the rider
naomi shihab nye
a boy told me
if he rollerskated fast enough
his loneliness couldn't catch up to him,
the best reason i ever heard
5 for trying to be a champion.
what i wonder tonight
pedaling hard down king william street
is if it translates to bicycles.
a victory! to leave your loneliness
10 panting behind you on some street corner
while you float free into a cloud of sudden azaleas,
luminous pink petals that have
never felt loneliness,
no matter how slowly they fell.
