The Clocks Go Back One Hour

Rumbling plastic wheels rushing in unity,
from tarmac to marble to carpet;
the shuffling queue dispersed, finally.
Luggage swept away, adorned with label...

Marathon of Endurance

...It's easy to find those who'll sprint,
To the end, with a heroic gleam,
But to run the long race,
With a steady, patient pace,
Is a rarer and more noble dream....

and filters such sensations
Sharing color is Okinawa salmon sushi,

Yes, I collapse whenever I hear the monitors screaming.
Yes, I shatter whenever I think of the bleeding spreading.
Yes, I stagger whenever I fee...
