Being a asthmatic i hope you can enjoy this silly poem as I do. |
| Daring them to beat its contenders Speeding white lines reached up to shake hands with sneaker clad feet But knots intervened furiously coiling around the stomach linings Yanking on long exploding rocket bombs Like an inferno suffocating for air Wheezing,wheezing Fighting, begging Like Holyfield did when Tyson bit off his ear Bartering with Native Americans the way John Smith did Praying to God for one last breath Knowing no day is ever promised Running but losing whine Kicking but slowing down Stealing strides in between breathes Inhaling jagged breathes Fighting ambushed pirates for the chance to make it to the finish Pouncing like a panther ready to attack its prey Kicking like a jaguar over massive boulders Blazing into your sight with bright green pumas on like only a true Jamaican would Running 500 meters across the finish line In irony fighting asthmas cruel untimely excursions |
