Brother of the Wind & the Pen
For biker scribe Eddie ‘Sorez’ Pliska, poetry is as much about capturing his passion for the moto lifestyle and the raw energy of two-wheeled travel in prose, as it is about documenting determination in the face of the often-harsh struggles of life. He has had his fair share of both.
Here is Sorez's exclusive March piece, titled Peaceful Miles. It's comforting to know -- with all the turmoil going on in the country right now -- that the road and your two wheels are always calling out, giving you a small measure of solace and some peace of mind ... even clarity of thought.
Sorez, a contributing writer for Outlaw Biker Magazine who also has a popular book of poetry out, graciously pens some inspiration for the NYC Motorcyclist community each month. You can read more about Sorez in a feature NYC Motorcyclist published in the spring of 2018.
Peaceful Miles
Riding forward
Without a care
Nor any concerns
Of what’s up ahead
Taking each day
One mile at a time
Splitting lanes
Staying alive
In the saddle
Upon the road
Peace of mind
As life unfolds
Trying my best
To be better than
The brother I was
Yesterday
Take the bike out, feel the rush of wind, the peace.
