boy is running
boy runs from northtop to southbottom
and below he sees reminders
mental games with no object
just for funkicks
he plays no turns
he run back to where he once depart
top to bottom
bottom to top
and everything in between
every other person watch boy run
he does not run at them
but by them
sideways sickofit
boy is running faster than usual
with pearl hand in hand
feet running by one another
not at one another
travel
travel
trans
boy is running out of life instantly
it was too late yesterday.
