The Egg |
Five wheels, chosen for their skill at breakneck speed. |
Three break leaving two that strain to barely breathe. |
There’s one left, but he can’t notice. |
He’s hoping for an Egg. |
Five wheels chosen for their need for untold speed. |
Three break leaving two more, straining just to breathe. |
There’s one now, he can’t notice. |
He’s waiting on his Egg. |
Five wheels, stolen for their skill at breakneck speed. |
Three break leaving two more straining at the leash. |
There’s one now, he can’t notice, |
until he’s found his Egg. |
And it hangs there spinning |
and brightly glowing. |
And he can’t stop laughing |
and his palms keep sweating. |
And he can’t stop dreaming |
of cradling his Egg. |
Five wheels, chosen for their skill at breakneck speed. |
Three break leaving two that strain to barely breathe. |
But there’s one now, he can’t notice. |
He’s almost got his Egg. |
Five wheels, stolen for their need for untold speed. |
Three break leaving two more straining just to breathe. |
There’s one now but he can’t notice. |
He’s cradling his Egg. |
And it hangs there spinning |
and brightly glowing. |
And he can’t stop laughing |
and his palms keep sweating. |
And it’s spinning faster |
and flowing brighter. |
And he can’t stop dreaming |
of cradling his Egg. |
