1000

Im standing here, grinning like a maniac, with two beasts of the road flanking me sleek, black, chrome-laced monsters that smell of oil and rebellion. But youre not looking at me. Youre looking at the road ahead, the trees, the sky and youre thinking, Thats just a guy with two bikes on a sunny day.

Wrong.

Thats not the temperature of the air. Thats not the heat of the sun. Thats the temperature of the silence before the storm. The temperature of the stillness before the first engine roar. The temperature of the void thats waiting to swallow your last breath if you step too close.

1000 degrees. Not Fahrenheit. Not Celsius.

Its the temperature of the inside of the engine when its screaming. Its the temperature of the oil on my skin thats already boiling. Its the temperature of the metal Im touching and you know what? Its not hot. Its alive. Its waiting.

Im not going to tell you to run. Im not going to warn you about the heat. Im not going to say, Dont come near.

Im going to smile.

And Im going to let you walk right into the fire because Im not just standing here. Im burning.

1000 degrees. And Im the only one who knows how hot it is.

And Im the only one whos still standing.

And Im the only one whos still smiling.

while the road beneath my feet is already turning to ash.

Youre not ready for this. Youre not ready for me.

And youre definitely not ready for the heat.

Its not hot. Its not even warm.

Its alive.

And its coming for you.

And Im still smiling.

Because Im not just standing here.

Im burning.

And Im not going anywhere.

Not until youre gone.

And youre going to be gone.

In 1000 degrees.

And Im going to be here.

Grinning.

Smiling.

Waiting.

For the fire to come.

And when it does

Ill be the only one left.

Still standing.

Still smiling.

Still alive.

And still burning.

1000 degrees.

And Im not even sweating.

Because Im not even human.

Im the heat.

Im the fire.

Im the end.

And youre not even close.

Youre not even aware.

Youre not even thinking.

Youre not even breathing.

And Im still here.

Still smiling.

Still burning.

Still waiting.

For you to come.

For the fire to come.

For the end to come.

And when it does

Ill be the last thing you see.

The last thing you feel.

The last thing you hear.

The last thing you remember.

Because Im not just standing here.

Im burning.

And Im not going anywhere.

Not until youre gone.

And youre going to be gone.

In 1000 degrees.

And Im going to be here.

Still smiling.

Still alive.

Still burning.

And Im not even sweating.

Because Im not even human.

Im the heat.

Im the fire.

Im the end.

And youre not even close.

Youre not even aware.

Youre not even thinking.

Youre not even breathing.

And Im still here.

Still smiling.

Still burning.

Still waiting.

For you to come.

For the fire to come.

For the end to come.

And when it does

Ill be the last thing you see.

The last thing you feel.

The last thing you hear.

The last thing you remember.

Because Im not just standing here.

Im burning.

And Im not going anywhere.

Not until youre gone.

And youre going to be gone.

In 1000 degrees.

And Im going to be here.

Still smiling.

Still alive.

Still burning.

And Im not even sweating.

Because Im not even human.

Im the heat.

Im the fire.

Im the end.

And youre not even close.

Youre not even aware.

Youre not even thinking.

Youre not even breathing.

And Im still here.

Still smiling.

Still burning.

Still waiting.

For you to come.

For the fire to come.

For the end to come.

And when it does
