forget about it

he sprints up the corridor
down
up
down again

until

he finds he can no longer

breathe

which sensation is
what he was trying
to escape
in the first place.

unfortunately
as distractions go
she's much too persistent
for running to shake off.

so he sprints again up the corridor
down
up
down again

with bitter smile
carrying a name
on his failing breath.
