AM, Cycle, hard, well

what does it mean this cycling thing?
Crankshaft creaks metal cleets clicked in
turn those wheels in a spin spin dream.

Pace is high hear the wind ride raw wing
duck tuck down, feel fast air soar slim
I turn those wheels in a spin spin dream.

What does it mean this cycling dream?
legs gone agog with knees caving in
turn those wheels in a spin spin thing.

Crankshaft creaks and cleets clicked in
clip the gears as gristle-grit burns thin
still turn those wheels in a spin spin dream.

Back is battered, wrecked neck locked in
wheels waste rubber, lungs burst skin
what does it mean this cycling thing?

What does it mean this cycling scene?
Turn those wheels in a spin spin dream
see woes whizz by in a speedy shin skim.
