With feet moving fast throughout the hours, moments are lost in the four minute mile… falling thru cracks in the sidewalk sprouting flowers wasted weeds frowning ground head in the clouds….smiling mind seeded by a wad of chewing gum stuck in a time warp beaten down passing ivy laden gardens climbing floating towers spinning on stars rainbow bound floundering tears escaping in the power of shoes' faltering motion tread melting down…. racing with the sun ...beaten out pulled by the moon counting down... burned to tired rubber drowned by fear overshadowed in the dayless years. © Sarah Gallant 2003 |
