Treadmill Poems - Poems about Treadmill

Fair legs aspire with striking delight. Spellbound and geared up to run to die. Firm sturdy steps leap to climb the treadmill. Eyes fixed and two hands pull the safety pin. Five minutes in, the sweaty minds unwind; Each second tick brings new heaves of relief. “Not so bad after all”, the mind secretes. “To the end of time would be a...

Trudging exhausted, weary and spent Revolving in an ennui which will not relent Each step closer to nowhere, be it fast or slow As days crawl by friends come and they go Dawn ushers forth a grand gift of renewel Moon offers solace, serene bright and cool Inside this cage I sense the light Lost is my soul, a Sisyphus plight Let my...

A distant rumble Not thunder…a plane? Remember when they broke The sound barrier Shook the house Made the dog pee …right there I think I hear the sun laugh Y’know…that ha – ha Its gonna rain for three days You’re gonna miss me laugh The moon just smiled Its rocking chair smile the baby ground hog is fattening up nicely the dandelions are away for the fourth I think I’ll...

I me 2 Am fiercely competitive as well Suppose that is not so much a new But commonality thread That bonds us together Surely makes us in fact human Like string flaccidly detached from an ailing kite Floating slowly ebbing away on a windless day With NA emblazoned in bold capital letters upon it in scarlet red hue on the front and BS in brown...

What life is this when all is not enough? Each goal achieved precurses one more need And worldly goods, my bloated ego bluff, Enslaving me in this sad selfish greed. The thrill of each success soon flashes past. Eyes focus then on some new gleaming prize, Spurred on by hunger, it is mine at last! I gloat, but then the fire within...

It’s a rainy, snowy Tuesday morning, so I headed to our fitness center (in the basement) to walk on a treadmill. On arrival there were four or five guys there. There was a time when that would have been reason enough for me to not go in - if I was alone - I’d skip...

I need a newer, bigger, better, object of desire. My friend has purchased just the thing and really stoked the fire. I’ll work another shift to find the money it will cost. And never give a single thought to memories I have lost. But for a moment caught in time, I’ll have the very best. Look down upon my peers...

The golden king of days, ruling sky just for hours. Sparkling jewels of nights, fading at destined time. Dipped in wealthy waters, ah! dark days yet to come. If feet are soaked in mud, yes! sun is rising soon....

Slowing down the motor, running low on gas The lies, the HOV lane, the truth off in the grass The speed counterproductive, it warps and then transforms The magic in the stillness, the beauty heaven born The light becomes a blurring, as darkness settles in Till stepping off the madness, and travelling within That fatal rush to judgment, a quiet now sustains One choice to stop the treadmill —all motion...

Insatiable thirst and hunger A bottomless materialistic pit Always something for nothing Prop your feet up; you’re the **** Narcissist lazy behavior Spoiled childish attitude Snowflakes; everybody’s a winner Except for people like me and you They want it all Dedicated to useless social tasks Judgmental of others Sluggish and fat Passion for wealth Absence of worth Fickleness nature Self-esteem at its worst No goals intended Overwhelmed and tired False-self dominates Tranquility expires Choked...

Light is fading It’s cold, abrasive Facing longer nights Green leaves mellow Brown and yellow Autumn has arrived Misty mornings Clock alarming Body sense awry Feel so jaded Last night’s raving Flashing through your mind Drink hot coffee Rush to catch the Seven thirty-five On the treadmill Routine, thankful Work keeps hope alive Simply crazy when, every now and then You want to bash your head against the wall No longer feeling worth it all Like...
