Running Away
Running away she clung
to the kittens in her purse
knowing she had won
she pulled out her prize
available weeks, and months
blocks to fill, tracks to pursue
dreaming of a mommy track
maybe hopeless, it fit
right there, well mannered
proven success, Tall
her moment of satiety
diminished in thoughts
future conversations
apathetic boredom
she challenged another track
brushed to his side
the welcoming smile
showing all its intention
hidden from her running eyes
tears to come, boxed out
the next month in her calendar
Strong Work Ethic Arrived
etched from years of experience
Only The Strong Survived!
take two and call me in the morning
her psychiatrist pensively said
She slowly awoke from her nightmare
rejuvenated, high and ready to fly
strong work ethic echos
leading the race
it never weared on her beauty
only her grace
