Dec 23 is the day we all just want to be over with. But I don't feel I have enough days left to spend them like that, so I put on my lights and went for a ride.
Hear my prayer on the darkest week of the year.
48 degrees, drenched in sweat, covered in mud.
Flying in the night along the water...
Started the year a slave to fear,
running from the old demons,
fattening on slipshod dreams,
a camera-crushed shadow shone
on the confused cave stone.
Ended the year flying at night,
pushing as hard as I could,
knees crying, thighs burning
to answer to that old self:
you can be this,
48 degrees, drenched in sweat, covered in mud.
Flying in the night along the water, laughing.
Hear my prayer for 2010:
Get up. Go ride.
pretty cool video. Your eyes follow the light spot.
