Chasing

156 31 44
                                    

Running away,
Chasing a space,
That's not even meant to exist.

Following haze,
Into the race,
I've never been so crazed.

Burning faze,
Your lingering gaze,
Don't really matter, do they?

Life's an array,
So cast all your fray,
Longing for your answers to stray. . . .

Secreting daze,
That's the phrase,
From claws of obscurity they whist.

******************

Note: 'Whist' is an old English card game that is played by two players and points are scored by the party who wins the most tricks. . . .
Also, here fray is used in its archaic sense, meaning to be in a battle or a quarrel or an extremely competitive activity.
