flowing behind him in beautiful streams
as he ran with his yellow lab
down the same trail I run daily
He was six foot one
muscles from head to toe
shiny gold wedding band
on his left hand
His smile showed
the thousands of well-spent dollars
his parents paid a skilled orthodontist
I saw him coming
glared and
hoped he wouldn’t see the divot
I rolled my ankle on last Wednesday.

great finish...
I definitely know how you feel. Sometimes I just want to be able to plod along without every would-be marathon runner breezing past me, making running look easy. Geez.
