this is what has been
my sole exercise for the past 2 years;
riding,
twice a week
between crown heights & chelsea
(roughly 1.5 hours round trip)
while my yoga practice,
along with so many other things,
has virtually disappeared
as a result of moving & renovating
i wasn't going to stop to take this picture...
it took me about a block of going:
"i should",
"i' don't need to",
"but I should",
"but i'm not"
to double back
and take this picture
but,
even though
i thought i had already taken my self portrait for today,
i listened
listened to that little voice that said
"you must do this"
because after all
the whole impetus of this project
was to pay attention
to that voice
so that it becomes as strong,
and stronger
than it ever was
because it is this voice
that guides the creative process
and it is this voice
that shrinks to a tiny whisper
and then dies away
when it is not listened to
