Within this mental content, secrets we find

You do not see the bikes for the roar
As they roll thundering down the interstate
Proclaiming a life once lived and changes...

Reflections are divergent 
images composite
negatives of dreams 
an alternate stream. 

Calculations of precise reality reflected.
