Rocky trail winding through pine trees toward distant mountains, sunlight filtering through the branches.

Some ride for exercise.
I ride for ritual.

Every turn of the pedals takes me farther from noise and closer to the quiet place where my mind opens wide.

Pull gloves on
Time to leave chaos behind

Been so near
Pressure mounting
Things weigh heavy on my mind
