Ski Race
January 25, 2012
The chair lift clicks and moans
against the freezing air.
The wind bites through my suit
-Spiderman and thin-
and roars against the snow.
My skis swish against the ice
that’s gathered at the top of the lift.
The sounds cracks-
like a slap through the air.
Light dances down the course
flashing red, blue, red
-right-left-right-
the speedy rhythm.
We slide down like a blur,
FLASH, racing the clock,
chasing the times of those before us.
It’s my turn. I push off-
escaping the laws of physics,
and tear down the course.
