cycle

it's not a sprint
but i want to attack it
foot on the peddle
full throttle.
it's not a marathon
but i want to pace myself
conserve energy
stretch the line to the tape.
there is no finish
but there are ends
indefinite pieces of time
suspended in any given reality.
in an attempt to sprint and marathon
i take my cues from the tour
combinations of attack and fall back
alternate the practice
but keep in mind
not to get lost in the past or future.
