Writing from home

Like a thousand chimes at midnight[1]

A reminder

what Great is[2]

Showing their color[3]

Have they heard?[4]

Have they been afraid?[5]

To what end?

Is this,

the Marathon we heralded[6]

Writing from home

Powerful emotions pulsating
through my veins
every breath a challenge
as I struggle in my chains

In the bleakness of a tunnel
far below the light of day
never knowing never speaking
slowly dying there I lay

Will they save me
from this nightmare
