Jan. 31st, 2006 07:57 pmWhat a beautiful day! The sun was smiling through the clouds and the slight breeze was eagerly pushing me along.
As I strolled across the parking lot, helmet in hand, I could see her there shining like a jewel on the coal-black asphalt. She looked like she was in motion even though she was still. However, she was leaning on her sidestand, like an impatient woman waiting for her partner to show up and take her out to dance.
As I got closer, I moved around this lovely creature with the many points of lights streaming across the facets of its surface. I admired the sleek lines of this being, shaped by evolution to move smoothly through the air... bred and refined by generations of racing champions in her lineage. Beneath the smooth, shiny skin was the powerful musculature of metal and hot fluids coursing throughout.
The lean seat and angular shapes revealed a lifestyle that deterred the timid. She would likely seduce her lover into false security and laugh throatily as they screamed around a gripping corner. But cross her and she will make sure that you will never forget the moment you pushed her too far.
Suddenly remembering the keys in my hand, I brought my own companion to life. I sheepishly pushed out the thoughts of admiring another as I glanced at my own partner with its hot-glued, duct-taped mirror and patch of rough scars on one faded side. As I strapped on my helmet and pulled on my gloves, I threw a leg across her well padded and worn seat. I gave the throttle a few twists. She answered back with a growl to remind me who I was with. I had to give her my full attention if I wanted to master the turns and stops that would be required on the busy streets.
Behind the safety of my tinted visor, I took one last look at the beauty that I longed to have one day. And with the glint of the sun on her headlight, she seemed to smile and wink back at me.
