Spiderweb of stress

(Dewdrops made of sore)

Networking wicked through my bones

Crawling sluggish through me

Seasonal and harsh

Going over the thrill

Trundling home by late and ragged bus

Tasting records to be made

And in the making

By ankle pain

I may never be the one

To break any school records at all

But I have my own, all my own

A chest full of beats to snap 'em by

And lots of hair ties in my purse

Steel trap of lethargy

Closing in

As the fight dies away

Falls in crumbling waves

With my ponytail

I'll always remember

Running

Jumping

Living

Track.
