朝，急にプールで泳ぎたくなって

タンスをひっくり返した

よく分からないけどコバルトブルーのプールの水面のような柄の水着が出てきた

そのまま三茶のドンキまで自転車を走らせて　すぐ水泳キャップと水泳ゴーグルを買った

最後に泳いだの、いつだっけ

サンフランシスコで毎日チャイニーズのじいちゃんたちに混じって泳いでいたのが最後かな

そんなことを思いながら　区民プールで２時間泳ぎ続けた

陸に上がった時に　フラッとなって　あぁやりすぎた　と思った

でもカレーを食べて　元気100倍

夜は　久しぶりに渋谷で終電を逃して　タクシーのおじちゃんと夜中のランデヴー

水の中で揺らめくキラキラも　

タクシーの窓から見える人工的なキラキラも　

まったくもって綺麗だ

In the morning, I just had a strong urge to swim in a pool.

I hadn't swum for ages, and the only swim ware I could find was an eccentric cobalt blue one.

Getting a swim google and a swim cap at a nearby Don Quixote was pretty easy, they have everything.

I paid 400yen for the 2hr use of the indoor pool (indoor is great, I never forget how badly I was burn when I swam at the public pool in Mission district, S.F.) and kept swimming for almost entire 2hrs. I finally got out of the pool, and that's when I realized how tired I was that I did swim too much.

I can't know how much a bowl of saag chicken curry and a huge naan saved me afterthat.

At night, I missed my last train in Shibuya, the first time in years, and ended up grabbing a taxi.

The light I see in the water and the one I see from the running car window at night.. they are both so beautiful in their own way.
