if you can't run fast enough, they'll eat you

a poem for ling

we train for two hours every day
the art of straight-back-running

because if you can't run fast enough
they will eat you.

With five minutes to go
and ten minutes to spare

there's a deathly tingling
lingering
there.

I really don't know
if I'll ever escape.

But if I make it out living
my timing
was great.
