Last Chance for a Slow Dance

Somehow with you here, and
These taps and twists,
Tips and twirls, a
Mending melting movement collective
Rectifies a dark sky,
Just outside,
A day of coming atom gloom

Let’s take this,
For time is short...
Girl, just like your skirt
For a day outside,
Is coming dark and doom
Our last chance,
For a slow dance
Close...rr…k?...BOOM!!!!

Long Distance Runner

Of green flag days
Long distance runner off
Worn running shoes
Old, Haggard and abused
Functional still
One foot,
Past the other?
He went best

Sad to say,
But the soles,
Such to see,
Had many holes,
Long distance runner
Though swift and fine,
Had no sight of a
Finish line

(The race was with himself)
