Cycling

It’s like fucking zen meditation

Get on the seat

Feel

All the pain

In all the parts of my body

Complaining

Adjust to get comfortable

It still hurts

Settle back on the seat

Feel

Where it still hurts

Keep going, breathe

Keep going, breathe

Stand with shaky legs

Breathe

Day 65

Intimate with the road, the wind, the trees, the flowers, the birds
The blood coursing through this body
And the rock hard bicycle seat bruising my buttocks
