Pedal Power

She pedaled until her shoes bled red

Riding away from nothing

In particular

Riding toward something

Yet unknown

She peddled until the wheels fell off

Riding away from

The familiar

Riding toward

A stranger

She pedaled until her brakes locked up

And she was thrown

headlong

Into the here and now

    Thanks for stopping by my post on the prompt.
