A bug hit my face mask today. It is funny as I had only just bought them before. I rode to the shop, turned up onto the sidewalk, Dismantled and entered the store, perusing my wants. I found the pack and paid, returning to my bike bag in hand. It was a tear pack, the color not as I wanted. I put one on and opened the seat to store the rest, My sunglasses, metas with sound, snug under my helmet I took off, descending from the sidewalk to rejoin the flow where farther down the road merged. It was there. It was then. A bug hit my face mask today, what a metaphor for all that’s been!
