metal fatigue

August 22, 2013

 to keep reaching in     into a repurposed cat litter bucket full of blownout grip shifts to keep pulling out    pulling     out that same six-speed shifter with the cracked barrel adjuster to keep putting it back on top of the pile and trying to dig a little deeper when returning to the well  oh well     only to come up with a handful of that same six-speed shifter with the cracked barrel adjuster only to try again tomorrow.

metal fatigue bent back & forth discoloration paint crackled heat build up but no dissipation just plenty of high hopes and expectation   sounds expensive like a Record derailleur sheared clean off  the hanger by a big fat bladed carbon aerospace industry influenced fiber spoke that still appears none the worse for wear but leave it in the sun for a few years then look back and talk about the good old days.  

google this       so they can save it on a server somewhere near Moses Lake a server on a server ranch that sucks so much juice straight from Grand Coulee just to stay cool so they can sell your search data back to you repackaged at a later date you have the right to remain silent anything you web-browse can and will be used against you.

in this litigious society the signs clearly point the way when you say you rode to work but the way you took your bike out of your friend’s car  on the corner and slapped the front wheel back on with the skewer all the way half ass kinda backwards with the brake cable hanging free in an Andy Friday’s sweat pants  rainy day way      say no way.

sentence structure paragraph transition complete thoughts thoughtful not too long creating extra friction actually as short as possible without binding avoiding kinks and unnecessary bends making smooth graceful arcs until it’s time to get straight to the pinch bolt point.

have your read beckett's "mouth" i think thats the title, the book of collected one acts stayed in the bike buggy only to be rained on and expand in a similar way that vw mechanics call donkey dicking of the thermostat. so i cant check the title because the book has been recycled.

I have not read that but I always liked Beckett's haircut in the photos that my mind recalls when I think of him. I'll look for the book at my local library and I'll look for ways to incorporate donkey dicking into my day-to-day conversations around the vending machines.
