Jogger

A Poem by Leslie Philibert
"

in the park

"
Being chased by a ghost, the roots of his teeth
break with impact, joints tied together with string,
corpus filled with compressed breath.
He gasps stones, grit and smoke, an air maschine,a wet,
strained mask, the bottom of his lungs filled with silver.
His heart shakes like a shocked bird.
It is as if all things in the park have been stilled,
left and right, one and two,all under the grey
now out in bad standing.

One can never out run their own ghosts, my knees where wobbly in the reading, the misty air burning the breath from my lungs, your writing is so vivid and alive...
