just different
The wind is on your back, asphalt in your view, feet moving, go just go, they can't catch you if you're running, they can't stop you if you're running, when you turn away from the cray cray, they can't stop you, so keep running, run towards the sun, run towards the horizon, run towards the edge of the world and keep going.

OTHER POEMS WRITTEN BY sjluke
Ars HaikuIt seems that we are at an impasse, a chasm of syllables

When You Turn AwayThe wind is on your back, asphalt in your view, feet moving, go just go, they can't catch you if you're running, they can't stop you if you're running, when you turn away from the cray cray, they can't stop you, so keep running, run towards the sun, run towards the horizon, run towards the edge of the world and keep going.

Entrance MusicBlaring in my ears the sounds of excitement hands clapping people shouting streamers floating in the electric air my body rocks vibrating to the sounds I am in my zone A ruler on their throne My kingdom is the stage While I perform and keep the audience in a rage. |
Rack it UpThe pool hall is silent. The bartender wipes imaginary dust from the counter, counting the minutes on the clock until closing time, it is almost midnight, one hour to go, the few reminaing patrons nurse their drinks as if they were their last. The waitress gives them a side eye, knowing there won't be any tips from these customers. The clock chimes midnight. Someone walks in. No one looks at the stranger in the dark trenchcoat. He has a wide brim hat that covers half of his face. His chin, a garden of stubble, is all that can be seen. The waitress looks at him warily. A robber, perhaps? Please not tonight. She just wants to go up and soak her aching feet and count the loose change she earned tonight. The man says nothing and seems to float towards the bar. The bartender gives him the once over, wondering if he should grab his bat from beneath the counter. The man sits down, f... |
HuntressRide into twilight there is an inventory of stars saving the sky from total darkness the moon is covered in shadows its light blinded the forest is dense, thick with life as you ride down the path and hear crickets chirp greetings and birds respond in protest, it is time to sleep but you must ride on.
