A Maya Stein poem for #VerseThursday: "trust me, I don't know what I'm doing". It isn't a poem "about" bicycling but there's a line in it that I loved (of course):
"I know that riding a bicycle makes me braver
than yesterday"

Two blog posts with poetry for #WorldPoetryDay: poems in which bicycles appear http://bikestylespokane.com/2022/12/10/i-think-therefore-i-ride-a-bike-rack-of-bicycle-poems/ and ones with a transportation element somewhere in the poem http://bikestylespokane.com/2023/03/18/safe-passage-through-countless-intersections-transportation-poetry/.

I started collecting poems with bicycle references a while back http://bikestylespokane.com/2022/12/10/i-think-therefore-i-ride-a-bike-rack-of-bicycle-poems/. Now working on a second list that's growing. Have any favorites? Doesn't have to be "about" bicycling; could be that bikes appear in passing, riding is used as metaphor--you know, POETRY.
