15 days art poetry during a performance, cycling 1500 kms from Paris to Copenhagen's COP15, november 22 to december 06 2009. Writing everyday, but also taking pictures and recording a movie.
Day 1, Paris Charles-de-Gaulle - Soissons
80 kms / 5 hours / AvSp 24
On the Road - Leaving To CPH
Everything is find.
It is just like you could count
on the side of the roads
all the plastic bottles
bags
boxes
papers
and know how far
you are from a city, a town,
a village.
Wind pushes me
to the North.
Rain turned around me
and the rainbow lights
my destination of today.
Day 2 - Soissons - Felleries
125 kms / 6 hours / AvSp 25
My friends are still there
Hopefully
Wind pushes me again 2 CPH
From the first minute
cycling
Going up the hill around
it is the first step.
You can see the
smoke of factories
White as snow
right under the grey
grey sky, and
right over the black
black ground.
Then,
On the road many
images can come.
The black rider is
a ant
fighting like a knight of Middle Age
a Don Quijotte
alone
against cars and
TRUCKS.
Then, again, off the Road
or getting threw
many differents
"PAYS"
bridges of highways and
bridges of High Voltage Energy
cross the lands,
straight away.
Both, when you get closer and closer
close, under
give you a deep sound
and strong vibrations.
Permanently.
Day 3 - Felleries - Brussels
112 kms / 6,5 hours / AvSp 22,5
Mud for the start
cold showers every 45 minutes
