Marathon

I’ve been running
much like she
going somewhere
yet getting nowhere
I sight a pot of gold
yonder horizon
I paused just for abit
but it gets farther
the landscapes change
orange to brown to green
my feet they stay still
I stretch my fingers
I never win

lol! ure poems on me blog made me laugh!

ok so this is my lamest attempt at Marathon

I've been jogging
on the treadmill
going nowhere
yet getting somewhere
I sight a pot of lard
pondered its tastes
I hastened for a bit
but it gets juicier
my waist size changed
light brown skin darkened
my feet I cannot see
I can't even stretch my fingers
I never want to do another Marathon
