the nightly jog
that free moment just right before dawn
wildly calm, each plodding plop
keeps me trudging along

it starts with a ringing alarm
followed by a shower so hot
my bathroom turns to a forest in fog
a deep breath ensures no moment is lost

soon time - the day'll be lost.

a mixture of bitching boss,
six reports that need retorts
I give my temples an extensive massage
exhale 'whoosah', as my inner peace nods.

the sound of my jogging suit is a zipping mirage.
zoop, zoop, zoop, zoop starts pissing me off.

I think of all the anger ive built
why im not caking, making a mil
taking regular vacations in Brasil
im slaving, so I can basically graciously pay bills.
nay I say, as my trainers get killed
I hasten my pace, racing myself, uphill.

what a metaphor.

the anxiety drills. climbs from the depths of hell
relentless in its quest to silently kill.
as I question myself like "why am I here?"
im tired of this tireless tale, the diatribe ive failed.

thats how I start my day.. and I finish it well.

this is supposed to be my serenity of chill
but the stress grasps me like an enemy ive helped
a familiar face, with a propensity to steal
everything ive worked for, the energy is real.

everyday mundane routine, strangling, surreal.

Well fuck me running (pun intended),hello Neek good to see you about friend..

First off liking the inner schemes here,and the imagery was ripe,I could actually see
the theme you was creating here,it was quite vivid and it was expressed well, even the
inclusion of onomatopoeie was a real nice touch,(with the tracksuit lines),this piece
was deep really,due to its subtle wording and what I like to call a two tone verse,it
appeals to all from the lower ppl understanding of rhymes to the highest,at a glance
it had a simplistic vibe,but it also conained options to go as deep as you can
comprehend,it's a real handy tool to have in the locker to be truthful,as it guarantees
readability,I was also feeling the metaphorical content here,this verse is littered with
real life question,and at times I guess we all run to stand still,a highly enjoyable read,plus thought line lengths were easy on the eye,also made for a pacey read and
enhanced the flow too, good work,and good to see you participating here..peace.

loved the opening! Very relatable as I exercise in the evening aswell. The personification of "stress" was awesome and very true
