It's raining again. Wet hair almost drowning her. Riding bicycles on empty streets. Hair running free. Flicks on shoulder blades. Blades that aren't sharp. Just soggy. Like a smelly dog that misbehaves. Hair that's not trained, nor restrained. No bands of Alice. Nor elastic. No coronets or diamanté. Tatty nylon hair nets. Holding hair in place. Makeup running down her face. Heading back to her place. Wants to find a towel. Like me, she loathes umbrellas. And her bicycle is rusting fast. Anyway, has anybody ever ridden a bicycle while holding an umbrella. (c)Livvi
