Running Thoughts

by Alisa Js

there was a crack in the shell of the old overcoat
that missed keen detection,
trampling footsteps provided some measure
to carry out boxes with fragmented labels
quick, before sunrise finds us derelict
we need to step up the pace if we expect to get paid
get a move on before one of us breaks
or snaps
under the weight of the strain in our pockets
right side front
my heart beats, thump! de thump!

what's with the 'de'?
do I need a doctor?
forget about all that crap, let's get rolling
before they notice the boxes are missing,
shit!
I have to run to the bank
stop fooling around with piss-ant possessions
I heard that somewhere, someplace
people are real
I want that for me
get moving, I've got a lot ground to cover ...
