Speed Demon

I run like a leopard through long grass Travelling at top speed, no one can stop me As if I am chasing my prey I am speeding through many places As if I am participating in races I am just a blur as I pass you You are just colour blurs in my visionary periphery My muscles stretched to the limits And my sinews start to burn My feet are on fire as I manifest and transcend Into neutrino speed Faster than sound Faster than light Head down back straight Legs pumping like pistons And behind me just a fiery dust And an inconsequential past In front of me is an unknown entity But now in this moment I travel At lightening speed, feeling free Living the dream as nothing gets in the way of me As speeding bullet I flash in this present time With nothing else in my mind but speed And feeling the ground beneath my feet And I get the sensation of being free.
