I chase the daily refrain
In an offbeat stride
With fault lines raging
Across my flesh
Refuge is few and far between
In the maddened trail I carve
For the rail-bound peril I trust
A deathly pulse is spawned
And off I race
Into frostbitten arms
For the coils
Of the common man’s strife
To stalk the daily rhythm
To encompass its strength
Its thundering rage
To joyously thrive
