Run for Your Life

I heard their engines before they got to the hill.
Devil monsters with eyes that freeze me in place still.
I had seen them before, hoped to never see them again.
Thumping their chests, they brought scary with them.

Screaming commenced as the people saw the bikes.
Last time they came they had mowed down our trikes.
I had hoped to never see them again said Mayor Fife.
Run! I yelled as loudly as I could. “Run for your Life!”
