Ailing


You have spent two weeks in the hospital
after a severe heart attack.
You are barely able to walk
let alone ride your bike with all your sleeping gear.
But you are okay.
A police officer stops you and asks
What you are doing.
You begin to explain
but he doesn't want to hear you ramble.

He gives you a permanent exclusion from the city,
forcing you to ride 20 miles that day.

(Another strange but true story.  This friend of mine ended up coming to my house and resting for another week.)
