To the Non-Helmeted Cyclist

Your helmet on holiday While on a highway Will make Accident Demons busier And a lot to the Devil easier, Either party to fracture your skull For man’s most feared call. Blame-worthy of you confronting a bike’s gear Without donning its defensive head gear, Suicidal, your cycling round the urban While choosing to not turban! Helmet dangling on a bike’s handle Makes same its unlawful wearer: Some silly, unlawful death nearer… A barefaced lighting of the Wrong Candle!
