Further

Errant thoughts are
Thunder and lightning that comes down like dust
Leaves of gold and red turn
Brown and gray
Peddle faster!  Stay ahead?
Wind whipping through my consciousness...
This introspective has gone too far.
Push it to the limits of physics
And reality.
Going too fast, now.
Don't let the storm catch you
Go faster. Further
Don't falter.
Steadfast in the resolve that 
Binds you to this spinning earth.
