An ode to futility
Chilly brisk night
dry leafs CRUNCH and CRACK, twigs
BREAK and SNAP.....
Under the pressure
always exerting.
Warm spittle; breathing down my neck
NEVER letting me rest.
I HUFFED, I PUFFED!
Taking in cool air
RUNNING. FASTER! It never lets me get away.
Always STALKING
The more I try to evade
A QUICK LEAP it POUNCES, ambushing me
Just as I begin to give in --it lets me free?
Reminding me it's always near.
A day, a year, he'll come for me
Just as I learn to realize this...
BAM!
DARKNESS?
Nothingness...
Was it all... a dream?
Where did it start?
When did it stop?
Who will put flowers on my grave?
