Running Out

 

 

The first thing I do,

When the alarm yanks me forcibly

From where I was, is think that I do not,

Do not,

Do not…want to go running.

The second thing

I do,

Is go running.

And beside me are running ideas,

Dreams and wishes…thoughts

Within me,

Ahead of me.

Where am I going today…but

Not “where” where, where am I really

Going?

Today; I will sell lies

To buy the truth

Tomorrow…

I don’t know.

I don’t think I can run that far.

The sun is out behind the city, waiting

For me.

Waiting for something.

Because I say “I don’t” or ”I can’t”

Makes me…”not” either

I know,

I can.

Running is better when you know

You can.
