Turn of the minute ...

In my new found zest.....

I was on a quest. ....

of outrunning slippery time....

with a stop watch. ....

chasing....the turn of a minute...

one more...and another...

these tiny fractions ....

of fleeing ....zig zagging.....

darting and out of reach...

' time '...

so here...was I...

flying by...on sneakers high..

out of breath....

running.....

clocking each minute...

giving it my best....

so many miles...

and fast flying time...

lost in...I was...

a time zone of flagging zeal.....

the stop watch...

would monotonously bleep....

louder and louder.....

second by second

minute by minute.....then...

in it's merciless peals....

proceed to shatter the ...

the arrogance of my fitness....

and precisely timed out runs....

with scarcely concealed glee...

and then ....there...

was me......

body aching....legs shaking. ...

the message was loud and clear.....

this was more than I could bear....

it was time to flee...

get home and joyfully sleep...

..until the next time...

did I hear someone.....

smirking...?

Ah...it is scornful arrogant .....

flyaway Time...

saying....oh yes... please.....;)
