sub-30
October 28th, 2008 | Published in general
First morning ride under 30°F
Not cold enough to freeze eyelashes shut
but time for the big gloves.
Find that balaclava already.
Acceleration exhaust hangs in the air
when it’s cold and still,
like a fart waiting to be pushed around.
Gentle showers of ginkgo leaves,
a flurry of tiny locust leaflets,
only contrails in the clearblue sky.
