Long Distance Runner Nearing Finish Line


Though you can’t make anything out yet, 
Near as the nearest phone booth, 
Someone’s making an emergency call.

  1. Oh, I hear you loud and clear, Vassilis. I once, on a very humid Buffalo day in early 90s, made it to the finish line courtesy of the Army National Guard.

  2. The finish line? Good God,man--I was under the impression you're still what we used to call "a going concern"!

  3. my last triathlon

    I came in
    last place

    &
    won the first-place trophy
    for my age group !

    now ?

    the only thing that runs
    is
    the dribble down my leg

    - as fast as it can !

  4. for what
    it's worth, I used

    to
    dribble
    basketballs

    between my legs
    ages ago, now

    no going concern, I still
    wonder where

    those balls went.
