Marathon Man Plantar Aspect-

Walk on the plantar aspect;
Yonder sole walks through life's traffic

So on these streets he walks alone;
On cobbler pathways made of stone;

Tether bound feet worn polluted soles;
Trotting marching everywhere he goes;

Step by step by step by step lonely traveler;
Trolling throughout the city he goes;

Yet now preeminence instilled solace;
The marathon a walking gatherer;

Hindsight in the back of his mind he knows;
Like in biblical times he's  marching the streets of Zion;

Now still he stands he digress;
Embedded of The Souls of his feet bit so gravel;

Feet corns and bunions hurt ;
Done walked miles on this bumpy Earth;

Pathway lit lighted  flows;
Marathon Man walk on,  he walks alone-

On terrain this worlds track and field so graphic;
Marathon Man walk on plantar aspect;
