the world is interwoven here, fog meeting sky, sky meeting leaves, leaves meeting pavement and i watch to see the awkward shift of shapes where the rain was and wasn't and i run to meet the horizon, swallowed by the clouds. these are the last days i will be here, and that is a peaceful thing. i am slowed down by it, content to amble, content to taste and drink in the red streets and yellowed trees of autumn, content to wrap my neck and hands and feet all up into packages, take them with me wherever i go. i am following the geese it seems, marking roads southwards, marking the way forward, downwards, from here. it is straight and crooked both.

does this road involve 1000 km and a pair of bikes? coz if it does you are completely insane.
