Passages Here 3
Fast walking strides
Three-plus kilometers;
Brisk cardiac activity
Toy terrier running
Owner on leash;
Creature comforts pace
Mad motivation
Blind leading blind;
Surging ahead
Crowd mentality
World Cup football;
Temporary insanity
Late night matches --
The world watching twenty-two
Athletic men kicking a ball
Headline news flash
Spectator frenzy;
Home crowd vantage ad
Struggle here
To sculpt new words;
Feel new rhymes surge
Joy in tired bones
Finish line crossed;
A personal best
All the world's
A stage and we:
Mere players (and spectators!)
