Triathletes and Bull Sharks
She's a triathlete, dialed into a lifestyle of dedication and clean living.
Logging lonely miles down isolated trails.
Where grizzlies and perverts like to dwell.
She bikes upon the veins of a big city.
Cars filled with smartphone addicts and assorted crazies.
Buzzing within inches of her lean ambitions...
(She has much more faith than me).
She dips into the salty black sea at dawn.
Where the bulls and tigers abound.
Splashing about like a wounded fish.
She's the bravest person I've ever met.
So focused -so oblivious.
It's a miracle she made it to the starting line.
Let alone the finish.
