They pace, back and forth with smiles plastered on their faces
Get ready, one two three RACE!
Harsh beats of the heart thump against our chest, water gushing from our skin
Grit….We wish.
We all speak to each other, for comfort
A friend we want to hold their hand and push…
Bring them along with us.
We say in our brains..if we all move together, the energy of one another will make one.
don’t push us, we push us.
What
there is no We?
I push back, you push forward, and the forces of us all trajected in opposite directions.
Chaos and enemies peer behind and in front because
He wans the front she does too….
What a race we make,
What a cycle we participate
Maybe its innate?
But I stop, watching the bobbing bodies float ahead of me
I will be last.
Peace at last.
