Running In The Dark - ON WRITING AND RUNNING

I'm used to running in the dark
Cars are honking, dogs will bark
Cross the pavement
Through the park
Stealthy strides and lots of sweat
Morning lights and silhouette
But I had a restless night
And this morning
I saw the light
What a scary, obese sight
My pace was slower than a snail
As I crept along the trail
Whale sighting wherever I roam
Gratefully I made it home
Still need to lose the middle tire
Maybe I'm just an old vampire
Back to the early morning run
No more running in the sun
