yankee doodle dandies

everyday, rain or shine
running red faced
huffing and wheezing past my porch.
in hundred dollar shoes,
color coordinated in silky side slit shorts
sunken chested
blue knotted vericosed legs pumping.

sweat shined fortysomethings
trying to out run time
racing for that american dream!
i've found mine just sitting in my chair,
sipping coffee and waving to them as they chug by.
