Up on blocks it rests,

a hillside hulk, testament

to roadhouse rambling.

Dancing plastic bag,

skittering across the road,

all its moorings lost.

Labeled a dandy,

juggling too many toppers,

bald but looking good.

In the first image, a Common Kawasaki Ninjus, female, rests in the shade.

A male, sporting seasonal colors along the shoulders, approaches.

Finally, a yearling catches up to the adults.
