Racing

We loitered for hours


in a tapestry of fields


Humongous pride


we went alone


there was so much to escape


Namely, the wind


Carrying messages of places unseen


Only by racing ahead


Could we see without hearing


The blur of what we passed


And send a wind behind us


to tell


the tales of who we were


And what we did


The future always meeting us


Like flesh at the point of a blade.
