perpetual jam!!!!!!!!!

[Doreen Peri]

At the beginning of what? What actual poems?

Hey, keep pedaling! I'm blowin' up my tires, too!
We gotta do what we gotta do, keep on movin', brotha,
into another day! Whatchya say? Move move move!
Get in the grove! Eat light, drink water, pedal pedal pedal.
(not necessarily in that order)

Order rhymed with water... that makes this a poem.
But I have no idea what happened at the beginning. I wasn't home.

[the mingo]

I was cruisin' along just fine.
Then it got dark and started raining.
Hadda park it.

that's an old Huffy 10-speed if i ever saw one - i know things about bikes -

[Doreen Peri]

They rent 'em at the beach.
Virginia Beach, the beach of all beaches.
Live music on every corner.
I know things about beaches.

[Doreen Peri]

If you look way yonder
past that "studio8" sign,
you can see the waves coming in.
Can you hear it?
Whoosh... whoosh.. whoosh..
That's the tide beyond my ride.

[the mingo]

I know things about beaches.

Crack me up

you got an ocean to ride along ? damn ! that's gotta be sweet !

[Doreen Peri]

It's 4 hours from here by car.
I used to go every summer.
Never fear, I missed a few years
but I'm going again in June!
I love watching the sun rise
over the ocean, swallowing up
the moon!

All the commercial stuff
is one street over.
All there is, is beach beach beach,
a huge concrete boardwalk
for bikers and walkers,
little cafes to stop and rest
overlooking the shore.

What more
could you ask for?

Life music on every corner.
I kid you not. That's what they got!

[Doreen Peri]

different day, different bike.
variety's the spice. what's not to like?
pedal on, pedal on, pedal on by
