Checkered Flag

Lost in the moment,

Before it begins.

A shot of adrenaline travels my veins

like a heroin addict on his high.

Green flag.


Lost among the pack,

Cruising down the worn black asphalt.

Coming in close,

paint vanishes and becomes metal.

Yellow Flag.


Lost in the chaos,

the flag is revoked.

A gap in the mess,

I go for it.

 

Checkered Flag.
