NIGHT RUNNING

joan joesting



When a daylight runner runs into night she gets another world

Rick-racking on simple side streets

Avoiding pollution and eye-jabbing car headlights

My feet are road eaters of smooth roads.



The golf course is painted by sprinkler ghosts

Bending their bodies to the ground


Legs enjoy the pulling of the hills

Sand traps suck my feet.

I fly into the navy sky to the giddy stars

Different seasons are the shadows

Camouflaging the road back home.
