so, i've cycled past these major sights a hundred times or more
also seen them from the inside of a sticky, stuffy bus
these massive maps no longer left me baffled to the core
yet orange circles joining A roads were to be sussed
coming from all directions, going from here to there along straight roads, and back streets used for speed and safety
this was no preparation for that initial scare
the tour of massive roundabouts that was awaiting me elephant & castle, bricklayer's arms, waterloo, trafalgar square
turn around and back again
trafalgar square, waterloo, bricklayer's arms
SE1 and elephant & castle
(we’ll make it past these roundabouts)
no visual structure, just motorised reality
trying to get round on a bike not off at every corner
... what about st george’s circus?
not getting off at every fucking roundabout
some fake heroic act of looking death in the eye to feel more
to feel more alive
there were times when i could do this in my sleep
... see you alive at elephant & castle!
