fuzzy fuzzy
cycling through tilden park this time of year is tenuous, for the ground is littered with caterpillars. i must constantly remind myself that to swerve into the middle of the road in attempt to avoid one of these delicate and beautiful creatures could bring my death. therefore, i ride slowly slowly slowly down the hill with my gaze transfixed on the black cement. during my ascent, i am afforded the great bliss of watching them push and pull their fuzzy little bodies on to new life. i notice a great propensity of them beneath gatherings of oak trees. as i ride, i wish that there were no cars, so that all of them would live and in time the air would be a mess of their dusty, scattered, flying. i often wish the world had no cars. none. as i break through the hills and look out upon the vast clearing, i hear cattle. i am humming the cure. "you flicker and you're beautiful, you glow inside my head."

Yes, I agree with you, Jeff. I don't like cars. When I was in Japan, I didn't need to drive my "super special no. 1" almost at all except helping my mother's grocery shpping and taking to or picking up my family at the train station.
But........if there were no cars in the world, I would have never met you and have never been able to play the music.
What an irony it is.
