Observation
Is this a race? Not sure when it started, whose race it is, or what it’s for, but here we go... Where is everybody? Somehow, I feel frozen in place. Deeply rooted in everything around me. Hard to believe sense I’m never present. My mind is always idling on yesterday and worrying about tomorrow. Whew I’m tired... not exhausted, not even thirsty, just tired. My heart’s heavy too but not pounding. This race feels lonely, no one in sight... it’s just me.
