Vivace! by Manna
Vivace
(Presto, Vivace!)
He took her hand in his own and he said
"We'll run and we'll run 'till all we see is red"
They ran their race on the railroad tracks
They ran and they ran and they never looked back
Further and further to outrun the oncoming trains
Through the wind and the hail and the harsh summer rains
Blinded by the daylight of the incoming sun
Agitated angry in the face of their run
They ran and they ran until the blood left their veins
Slickening up the tracks for oncoming trains
Those loud shouts to paint them black with tar
To hunt them down and chase them from afar
And when they caught up to them he looked at her and he said
"Together we started running and together we end"
They ran their race on the railroad tracks
They ran and they ran and they never looked back
so for a while I was experimenting with different styles and I had the idea for "speed poetry" or, poetry to be read at a fast pace
but wow that was really gimmicky so I eventually scrapped the idea
this is the only completed work from that experiment
I do eventually want to make a separate writing persona to explore a different kind of writing, but I still haven't found an alternate style I like
