Michigan Runner

Infinity Loop
A cure goes in search of illness. Say you're afflicted by love of running.

The cure is doing it and undoing it - indulge yet let go its claim on you.

The hard thing is it's so easy. Mindful it's mindless, step out and go.

***

We are born with answers and spend our lives trying to learn the questions. Why is our vehicle our obstacle? Why does the body we live in kill us?

We get out of ourselves to know ourselves. Into the out-of. Running, for me, is a means of transport.

Left, right, left. Heart pumps blood to extremities ... blood comes back.

***

God and The Devil are in the details. So's life's fullness. Physicists try to explain the universe studying atoms.

Split the tiniest structure known and blow up the world.

***

We are one and whole. Why divide? For knowledge of good and evil? So we distinguish. We all want to be distinguished, but none cast out.

***

Segregate ends in gate; integrate is great. Good and bad need each other like light and shadow, friction and fusion, disease and cure. So goes transformation.

***

We stress our bodies to make them stronger, tax minds for payback. We love/hate hardships that make us harder, pose as selves till we understand they are self-imposed.

***

Iraq and Iran are too much. I run.

Inhale, exhale, sweat ...

Because the universe is everywhere, so its center must be.

Right here. MR
