When I Run, I Break the Sound Barrier

When I Run, I break the Sound Barrier Moving through stagnant space The world’s inertia pulls against my rebelling figure Frantically trying to impede my speed My ears Fill with the rhythmic wind Of my breath My blood racing life to My extremes I can’t hear… my mother my students my ex I can’t hear my failures my insecurities my problems I see only the road Create only sweat Race only myself My goal-- Hedonistic Exhilaration as the barriers Explode
