Getting Hurt at Sturgis

I wear this gear.

Because I've been,

Hurt before.

I won't let any,

Thing or person,

Hurt me more

I like my gear.

Have you not seen,

All my scars?

I hate it here.

The damage has,

Gone too far.

I don't wear,

Gear for you.

I wear gear,

Because of you. . .

(Spawned by a comment made by Vespa Steph about her gear, I found it poignant and timely, here at Sturgis. You don't see many people wearing gear, but most of them are doing plenty of damage to themselves on and off the bikes. It seems that's what Sturgis is about.)
