The Meet
Spoken Word
Both Spring and I put our heels on
The starting mark
And sunrise was the gunshot
Before we’d gone half the track
Out of breath called and called
And called between puffs of
Cigarettes and quit
Made for a distraction
Love did the same thing
Raced me
Then called and called
While Spring did its warmups
Watched me with amusement
While I snuck off somewhere
Quit
Snarling about karma being blind
Reenacting
All the times when I lapped
This situation
Inside out is how I really
Really crossed the finish line
