    Twilight Ride on a Dragon

    The 818 is a hoot to drive. Don't know of too many cars personally with better acceleration. So thought I would write about the adrenaline experience. I know most people aren't into poetry, so if that's the case just ignore this thread. Hope a few enjoy it!

    Twilight Ride on a Dragon

    Evening sun retreats, quickly falling out of sight;
    Stars gradually appear, on damp, moonless night.

    We smile at each other, time for us to take flight;
    Sheepish grin on our faces, ride a dragon tonight!

    In the garage it sits and waits, pale eyes all aglow;
    Beckoning us now, wagging a scaly tail to and fro.

    Strap ourselves in, rugged seats wrap our frames;
    Awaken sleeping dragon, nostrils puffing flames.

    We leap onto the street, best hold on very tight;
    Smell the burning rubber, as we head out a sight.

    Hunting for windy path, a shadowy autumn lane;
    Leaves swirl as we pass, asleep before we came.

    My foot mashes down, spinning tires finally stick;
    Quickly shift up into 5th, launch our rocket ship!

    Dragon shows its teeth, speed squeezes our face.
    Boost exceeds the limits, with such a wild pace;

    Ground falls way below us, leaving earth behind;
    Smile to one another; best ride we’ll ever find!

    The first time I took mine on the Dragon I made Killboy's weekly highlights.
