Muscular Parts Oftoad

Fall


I was under the sun, blinding light, a warm smooth dune grit smooth, it was hot, was warm, soft, comfortable, a pillow, and was standing right there in the sea, fresh and salty. Right there. Just below the descent.
I roll down the dune, hot hot, the sand in the eyes, ears, between the teeth, between fingers, under fingernails, in the plaice, an annoyance, but it's fun, beautiful , and then coming down into the water, brrr, cold, beautiful, wonderful ... above and below ... on the dune, a mess of sand and expired, and then in water, rinse and cool to cold wake, a slap, a thrill, the excitement, the little cold, the meat shakes, heart racing and the desire to do it again ...

Then, suddenly ...
... and slide down the dune, under water, here, I'm going to slam hard against a bit of rock, you could not see from outside. You could not see anything. And the water is ice cold and then I realize even now the blow, yes, well, I feel the blow, but it seemed a small thing.
Instead I split and I bled and clear water was dyed red, and warm in the grit open wound has become infected.
And while he tried to heal
autumn has arrived.
