you always
sound
excited
breathless
as if from
a race
jumping hurdles
to make it
before
the last ring
and i am
the prize
waiting
on the line
you always
sound
excited
breathless
as if from
a race
jumping hurdles
to make it
before
the last ring
and i am
the prize
waiting
on the line
I love the aesthetics of how this looks in terms of the short raspy lines but also the images it conjures up. The lack of punctuation or capital letters adds a lovely softness to it.
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed this poem.
