jump!
through flaming hoops, over fences and 4 foot hurdles, over humpty dumpty who sits on the wall, weave in and out like the good border collie, the awesome aussie, the sweet shepherd,
dog.
~~~
home stretch.
the beginning of the end.
those words seem strange, but i know the feeling. i know those colors and sounds. solitary orange/blue of saxophone notes, the sadness of having lunch period with none of your friends...
~~~
go.
walking, running, moving towards who knows what. one foot in front of the other, toes wrapped in tape and breasts held in lycra/spandex heaven...eyes straight ahead. slow and steady. avoid eye contact. every runner knows you run your own race, play your own game or they'll get inside your head and trip you up.
~~~
dream!
of crystal blue sharp colored lakes. moose droppings and angel filled forests, no litter on the ground. toasty fireplace nights, glowing yellow kitchen, hot spicy tea easing down your throat. lazy sleepy kitties curled fur donuts under your feet. wrap yourself in quiet, go out to greet the stars...
