i got…

i got a high clearance head in a low clearance tunnel

i got me more mosquitoes to swat than i care for— who’s ever cared for the lowly mosquito

i got some fearsome weather on the way, and wilting heat to follow that

i got the freedom to set the course for the day
i got the maintain pass blues

i got me the idea to head east
i got to head for the coast

What I’m Reading:

… we resume pedalling, the crash of surf resonating on our right and an endless row of beach houses to our left. Sand skitters across the path, dusting my chain and sifting into my shoes.
