Bug

Running flat out
Antennae waving
Legs churning, skittering
Eyes flat at the roaring
Hard white, white of a tile floor.

Sky motions thunder pink and
Bruise black a booming, shaking.
Path blocked, pressure hot
Pain shot.

Body broke, legs caught
Darkness.death
Shoe stomped.

You see before a path blocked?
Running hard and cold view.
And time's a shoe
That stomps.
