I like your use of ‘2s against 3s’ interlocking rhythms too, it evokes life’s pattern of people’s experience and how we all interact.

Do you have a twitter page or something?

thanks a lot,

Katy

The repetitive quietude of its strain reminds me of pedaling. Cyclists pass by, follow rivers for the flat planes of terrain, and you seldom see them again. Cyclists and rivers flow together. You may not want to associate with the sweaty third of traffic, but welcome to the law of unintended consequences. I’ll be adding it to my blog and list of 1,000 songs recorded about bicycling.
