To-do lists on a long yellow legal pad Blue Windsor knots framed by basic black Resplendent tables Great forests of paper plates Carrying the weight of the world Saps every ounce of your strength In training to run a marathon Miles and miles and miles With your Sunday shoes on In training to run a marathon Miles and miles and miles With your dress shoes on But all the recurring dreams Will increase and then peter out and cease Tears do evaporate But oh so slowly like piss on toilet seat In training to run a marathon Miles and miles and miles With your Sunday shoes on In training to run a marathon Miles and miles and miles With your dress shoes on
