Eulogy for a bike

Good bye excercise bike. You served us well as you took us to nowhere. You went and went and went, and yet you stayed in the same place. Saturday night when you fell apart, it was sad for us. But more than that, it was sad to have to clean up the mess your untimely demise left. Now you're going to a better place--the dump. Have a nice time there with the bugs, crows and garbage. We won't miss you too much, because we've already replaced you. No, we have no shame or loyalty, we're just that shallow. And in a million years when some archeologist digs you up and wonders what you were, we'll look down from heaven and laugh at you--because you were a bike that went nowhere.
