I Hunt for Petrol Stations – Friday 22nd June 2012

I Hunt for Petrol Stations

i hunt for petrol stations
often in need of fuel
tiredness has stolen my legs
and held them to ransom
and my eyes
look a little less handsome
i roam empty streets
with the fuel light on
i feel the ravines
and my energy is gone
i pick myself up for the weekdays
propelling myself forward
i hunt for petrol stations
i fear being caught
caught without –
the get up and go
which i fear has got up and gone
we are lights in this life
there are ways to go forward
i hunt for petrol stations
