JONAH

I feel like Jonah

Gulped by this big fat whale and brought back to my fate.

Indeed I wanted a clean slate.

Truly I was ready to defy the odds and take whatever came with it.

Not until the first challenge  charged at me like a bull in full rage did I begin to second guess my stance.

I had tightened my laces now it seemed like I couldn't swap shoes.

Play me sad songs that sound like blues, cry me tears so true.

For my destiny has held me by the words my tongue uttered.

I'm back to that which my heels attempted to take me from.

Nothing left to do but to weather this storm.

Run this race even if I'd begin with a crawl.

Nothing left to say,  my pen has said it all.
