.the cyclepoet: i am the cyclist

People scatter as I approach
Cars back off rather than encroach
And suffer reproach
In the form of a stare
That asks them to dare

For I am that evil known as the cyclist
Second only to Lucifer himself
Biggest danger on the road
Causing jams where once flowed
Striking fear to young and old

I am the cyclist
Responsible for all that is foul
From holy wars to Simon Cowell
My fault
Mine
The bloody cyclist

Arrogant and dangerous I should be banned
Bike stripped and canned
No bike paths planned
For I am the cause
The reason
For society's ills
And all the roadkills

I am the cyclist
