Fall leaves rustle
Background music
Moonlight shines
Can’t choose and pick.
Sprint to the finish
Grind through the course
Squat and push
Reps are the force.
Snatch and catch
Push and pull
Euphoria?
Bliss in the lull.
RESPONSE TO CHANGE
Conflicted as the night
Troubled—to the point of flight
Heavy-hearted—that is true.
More accurately—very blue.
Nothing fun in change.
Rocking the boat—always strange.
“Wait and see.”
Blah! I’d rather plea,
“Say it ain’t so.”
I can’t deal as you know.
Luckily, time never stops
Ending all the flips and flops.
“Could be better than you imagine”
I believe that as much as a dragon.
Nothing to do
I have no clue.
Helpless—
And on I press.
Written when I found out my box was being sold to new owners.
