*Run.
Faster!
They're catching up,
They're almost here.*
Crashing through the woods--
You can hear their spies
Buzzing through the trees,
Right beside you,
Keeping up easily with your dragging.
You feel too tired to keep up with
The fast pace.
*Pick up your feet.
They're on your tail!
Get up.
Run!*
The spies--
Some darken the sky,
Now a hazy gray,
Their black wings overtake the slower pace.
You can hear their gleeful laughs and cries.
*Don't give in.
FIGHT!
Run.*
You feel your feet uselessly pulling,
They refuse to go on.
They need to!
You let yourself fail,
You can feel yourself fall from exhaustion.
The exertion was not enough.
Crash--
Fall--
Down.
There's no one here--
No one but the enemy.
*No one will save you.
You didn't run fast enough.*

Exaggeration of how I feel when I run alone in the woods.
Funkify Definition: To retreat fearfully.
