    Anxious to Take Flight

    I'm not at all a motorcycle enthusiast, but I recently discovered that I like drawing motorcycles. One the assignments I had prior to this had a motorcycle in it, and I enjoyed drawing the engine. The engine is very intricate. It's like a complex composition inside the motorcycle.
    So when I saw this poem, it gave me another opportunity to draw and paint motorcycles. And when I read the reference to “Dino Knights,” I thought that was fun, because I could put a modern-day medieval spin on it, which I like doing in my art. I said, “Well, knights ride horses, and that gives me an opportunity to put a horse skull in there.” It adds a different touch and ties it back to the actual poem.
