[bodytext] => A shimmering car waves down the street The driver has the world under his feet Cool under the burning heat He never waits, never has, never will The driver pushed too hard His car scratched the road A tiny flame, a fatal flame A car dies A driver sits, helpless His face scarred by the flames A fatal flame, a tiny flame Leaving him a dying man The runner approaches Tired but still running Spotting the dying driver, she stops For the first time in his life, he waits In the dead of life he places his life in her hands Like a child he slowly understands What good is there in hurrying Reaching the finish line all alone Solitude Loneliness is a curse; The runner is a miracle As a lonely car dies with a flame She saves him, not even knowing his name [comments] => 0 [counter] => 184 [topic] => 64 [informant] => jl1989 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ambiguous )
