dog running down the street
scared to death
running running running
trying to get away
or get to SOMEwhere
so he won't have to run
anymore
his feet are sore.
we've all seen it before
like scores upon score.
boy running down the street
scared to death
running
to get somewhere
safe
somewhere he won't
have to worry about running.
a place that heals
his sore heart
a place that safely says
express THIS part
of who you are.
we've seen it all
before, the last
hand silently turns
and closes the door...
old man running
down the street.
enclosed by steel boxes
first one with wheels
then one without.
no more voices
only faint traces
of faces within
memory's palace
running running
running to the void
