Biketoberfest in Daytona
Bikers all wearing dark glasses
to make sure their eyes never betray
inner secrets invade this sandyseaside resort
every March
Bikers outfitted in de rigeur black leather,
big boots, gloves, wrist bands, sprout metal studs
Bikers with tatoo and piercings incorpareted
as supposedly noncomformist art
Strip to shiny thongs
flexing biceps, buttocks, breasts
all decorated like wild colorful nomads
while they suck down cold beer
Causing momentary stares from older residents
outfitted in terrycloth furry bathrobes
and white beach hats
Cars and traffic crawl along Route One
as onlookers; tourists and 'biker wannabes' lounge on sidewalks
taking in the supposedly raw annual playtime
Bikers depart towing chromed, polished,
bikes on shiny new trailers – virginal bikes
which have never been ridden
reality all pretend just for lusty show.
