"Pursuit"

“Pursuit”

cji

2/17/17

Remember running one night

seemed like hours unending

avoiding streetlights darkness

crazed with fright unknowing

there the same vehicle again

round and round my mind

seeking sanctuary within

pursuit coming closer now

till pounding of a door found

awakening in a cold sweat

sobbing softly in anguish

unwilling to surrender ever

to the worldly pursuit felt

running – running – running!
