Sprint

Folder: 
2022

you are easy.

we are easy.

 

it’s the mess in me

that makes me messy.

 

it’s the chasm in me

that leaves me stranded.

 

the world is there

if I just don’t get burned.

 

there is too much excess here

not enough growth

not enough real.

I float through the days

not counting the times I use my voice.

 

I spend all my change

on the edges

and don’t look at the picture

don’t learn the life.

 

I run but I’m too careful of

the ground.

 

I wish I could

sprint without looking.
