Escape Velocity (feet of mine)

by Vikki Owens

He tells me I'm
running from him

only,

I cant hear him
because my inertia
is carrying me downhill
too fast for me to
stop...

I am screaming

'Move, feet of mine,
move, feet of mine,
move....

feet of mine

move....'

I dont seem to be picking
up enough speed
to get away from
my skin...
like I am trying to leave
orbit
reach

escape

velocity

move
feet of mine

move...
