ADRENALIN
Val Hickman
 
Flatliners  – the ultimate, not for me,
I like mine in chunks like hearty veg soup.
 
For me pedal to metal, winging humpbacks,
Two wheels on adverse.
 
What speed limits?
What speed ramps?
What potholes, what skid patches?
 
No Germaline, no Micropore.
 
The conch – a mermaid,
Big Dipper – a buzzard.
 
Hammer, hammer, hammer the elusive nail.
 
You can’t keep a good junkie down.
