invention transformation
Tinker clever inventor,
long into the night.
Steady pedalled bicycle,
lifting into flight.
Shadows cast across the moon,
wing and wheel by shape.
Exploring new direction,
upward in escape.
Healthful and renewable,
exercise dependent.
Capable of sonic speed,
blissfully efficient.
Flocks of human commuters,
daily in migration.
Ever clever tinker made,
travel transformation.
