swimming into the sunset

Going to the pool. Swimming in salt water, warm, pre-natal. First thing in the morning, no one here but a few dedicated jocks and lots of old folks who are glad to have an excuse to get out of bed. A long time ago I remember one old man- probably dead now-saying he couldn’t sleep past 4.
The life guard turns on a heavy spray and the old men line up for the chance to let it pound on their backs.
