pursue

chasing the first impression
impressing temporary cohorts to call me friend
unaware of the recoil
until i noticed the consistent shots high and to the right
bracing for the inevitable
only delaying the inevitable
angering time
“That’s Father Time to you!”
he proclaimed
the pace and volume of his words
snapped the fingers
after a count to three
you will be normal again- hypnosis
suppose this
game of cat and mouse will not continue
like Tom and Jerry
two oxymorons
killed each other with kindness
along with the series
and the chase ends
end chases by gassing dreams
with such pursuit that friends rename you
last name- Pursuit
first name- Hot

Pursue
