Description
I was looking at my photos late night and i saw this and thought. "Here a man that wish to be in a gang and he have to do what they say and hang out for a year before they vote him in" That is what most gangs do even if it a good group of people that just like to ride and have good clean fun. I hear some exceptions at times even in the 1% group[means the bad bikers that is bad to the bone]. I knew one guy that beat up three Hell's Angels and two other bikers at the same time on the street. he put them in the hostipe and he was there too. When he saw they put one of the bikers in the same room he was in he jump up and beat him again. The president of the hell's Angels and two others came into his room the next day and pulled out a sawoff shotgun and say "You join us or die." He join. Then Matt Goober[most likely i misspelled his name]after a few years finded Jesus and got out of the group. He in Mississippe running a home for the children that no one can do any thing for[real bad teens]. I saw him live and read his book.
I thought of this as I looked at this photo. I know you see diff and that good. That what art is about too.
maybe you think if you get a Tiger by the tail you best let go and run.
Thanks foor looking and comments

I just looked and saw the chop image of this I was going to upload lol. It would be tighter with the tiger and the man in it. lol I leave this up as is . Just make it big and crop it yourself in the right-center of the blown up image. thanks I leave this for you still get the meaning of what i say and more too.

So many spend a lifetime feeling on the outside looking in. Some are happy about it, others sad. Love your photo. I also love the above ground crypts here. I like that about the old cemeteries in the south. We had them in the old Galveston cemetery too.

I used to ride a Harley and never had the desire to join a club/gang. I like your narrative/photo. A touch of real life for some. ;-)

Great image but an even greater tribute to how good can overcome even the "bad to the bone."

Superb writeup on your most excellent photo! Thought provoking for sure! ;)

Good POV on this capture but the motorcycles are lost in the shadows, Jock. I assume that's a cemetery in the background, which would be an ironic setting vis-a-vis the bikes.

I read Sonny Barger's book because his father like my first boss in California was from Stockton. My cousin's husband was a fomrer policeman from Kansas City who liked to act out the rituals of the president's of the MC in Rochester NY while his wife (my cousin) witnessed to the topless women inside the clubs. He still has a Christian bookstore in Geneva, NY. She has been gone since a rainy night in October 1985. The last time I was with her I set a penny on her Franklin stove and waited until it turned black. We talked about art I had made in Washington, DC with the raucous crayons available there.
