Fast (National Poetry Writing Month 2016 #11)   Leave a comment

I need to go fast
I need to go empty
I need to go without
And use what’s within me

I need to go fast
I need to go quickly
I need to go forward
Without doubt or hesitation

I need to go fast
I need to go fast

I need to go fast
I need to go hungry
I need to go starve
Until I’m weak and slow

I need to go fast
I need to go zero to sixty
I need to go breakneck
Until I’m out of gas

I need to go fast
I need to go fast
