He runs his runs his fingers through his hair with one hand,
and mounts a bike with the other.
It's humid out, as usual.
He puts both hands on the handlebars and kicks off,
feeling the warm air
caress his face.
He rides past walls and walls of green,
birds chirping, screaming, calling.
He rides past waves of blue,
crashing and rising, seagulls overhead.
A car horn honks from behind,
passing him, a hand sticks out the window and waves.
