Words and pictures go very well together. I've always believed that ...
Here's a collection of poetic combinations really say something.
Bottom Bracket Bicycles
When driving a car is just a fantasy,
and the bus drivers are paid to hate your guts,
and getting caught in the wrong neighbourhood
can mean a trip to the hospital,
and getting home from the hospital
means begging abjectly for a ticket
you may not be permitted to use,
and sleeping in the emerg ward is not allowed,
and asking for money is not allowed,
and looking for food is not allowed,
and getting angry is not allowed,
and being visible is not allowed,
and starting a conversation is not allowed,
and your friends are an hour's walk away
on soleless shoes under a spitting heaven,
the power to move on is still inside you.
