months of preparation
training and denial
muscle tones
sculptured as
Art de la Renaissance
David reborn accepts
Goliath's new challenge
without a stone to fling
without a giant to face
enduring drawn out race
adopting focus and mentality
of a marathoner
feel
decisive motion
outstretching
ideate
vivid picture
of breaking
leaning forwards
cutting through
thinnest bright
yellow tape
crossing line to
consummation
imagined moment
arrives
last bend rounding
colored ribbon
isn't there
like a gift
without a bow
final step missing
where walkaway
should be
unforeseen barrier
on the edge of bliss
fence twists and turns
slats and wires snarling
no crowd cheers
mortal silence prevails
lungs squeeze
muscles fail
vision clouds
recalling movement
rehearsed before
beyond belief
only beholding
ocean blue
without hindrance
soaring through
waves roar
thundering
applause
