motorcycle superhero

today, while driving to a friend's house i passed two men touring around the country roads on their big beautiful harleys. what i saw as i passed them is the thing that made me laugh

the man leading was wearing all his motorcycle gear, helmet, goggles, leather and on top of all of that had put on a navy blue buttondown shirt. i don't know if he planned this, but as he drove down the road as fast as he could, the unbuttoned shirt was lifted from his back and flapped in the wind like a miniature cape. resembling something that a little kid would tie around his neck and run through the fields to pretend to "fly"

in these moments, i realize that we never really grow up, as much as we want to be older when we are little kids, i think we strive to be little kids when we are grown up.
