Running Downhill, Naked

RUNNING DOWNHILL, NAKED
by Matthew Sanborn Smith

Running downhill,
naked.
Screaming.
With blood all
over me.
"Who the heck
is this maniac?"

"Give him a cookie!"
"Immediately!"
"A nice one
with raisins."
"They're Nature's
candy!"

They pelt me
with nice cookies.
And now I am naked
and screaming
with blood and
cookies all over me
and still running downhill.

It's a big hill.
