DOWN BY THE RIVER

good evening cyber friends
cyber fiends
fibre seeds
fireseeds
yours truly coming online again
this warm seoul evening
wanted to tell you about the lovely time ive had
with lovely hannah elisabeth
bicycling along the river han
the other day we bought me a bike
with a cool kiddy seat you hang from the handlebars
btw j aint a big fan of bicycling, friends
ever since she went flying over the handlebars
in china a few years back
so h and i moseleyed on down to the riverbank
while j went for dinner with friends
m was there but unfortunately not k or l
anyway h and i headed southeast along the river
joining the brigades
of fellow bicyclists
inline skaters
young lovers
old lovers
dog lovers
families et al
past an uninhabited island
a verdant bird sanctuary
under bridges and overpasses
threading our way through the concrete sphagetti
breeze blowing through our hair
cooling our brows
ended up in a field
right opposite the 63 building
gleaming gold in the setting sun
hannah e had nodded off in her perch
so had to stop and rest awhile
lapped up some of my new malcolm gladwell book
blink
then woke hannah e up and rode back to mangwon
towards a perfect orange sun
reflected in the han
disturbed a heron on the bank
flew majestically away across the river into the twilight
something magical about bicycle motion
at least when not slogging up some hill in first gear
saddle digging into yer backside
they say the bike is the ultimate ecological invention
might save us all yet
well anyways me and my little girl had a special Sunday
hope you did too friends
see you again real soon
love to yall
