Running the gauntlet
and running a marathon
are the same
–and totally different–
the first is defined by
fierce
determination
to do your best,
the second by
fears
determined
to best you,
the one you swing your arms
–you’re fit!
the other
you swing your arms
–in fists!
the marathon
quickens your
heart beat
–causing you to sweat,
and the gauntlet
quickens your
beat heart
–sweating
your cause.
So, a marathon and the gauntlet
are the same…
like surveillance versus howja do…
but totally different.
