Midnight Ride To Deception Pass
A cool midnight ride
Down the narrow spine
Of black water’s edge
Tattoos and chrome silver flashing
Beneath the strobe sparking streetlights
Astraddle warm engine metal
Fascination behind cannabis eyes
Within the brain leaves a hot fingerprint
Skin tingling beneath denim and leather
Rock-and-roll heartbeat run to the Deception Pass
Upon island’s northern tip spans suicide’s rail
Rider glides bridge’s span through hovering white clouds
