Marathon Ride

Life is not an easy road but to live it one has to traverse its course.

The adventurous riders control
The leap over life-long hurdles;
Soaring to prey like an owl.


Steering from misguidedness;
Steering from obstruction;
Navigating to reap success.


Steering to improve a position;
Steering from dips and bumps;
Steering from anxiety and confusion.


Steering on trail, poised on track;
Traversing the rough and narrow path;
Heeding to signs to bypass a stop.


Competing where love and hate reside;
In a distant off-road track
Where hate and division abide.


They will frequently accelerate
With long and gruesome ride;
But will often ride side by side.
