A Lively limping
He only has a few minutes left in this green room before he can redeem and reward himself.
--
Tired, with no energy left, I have just a few minutes and a long distance to cover before I unlock the gates of the white world.
Will I make it to the other side and get my life back?
I know it's exciting to imagine myself enjoying paradise once I make it there, yet it's beyond my potential to reach there in this short span of time.
I have never done it, and definitely not with a ticking clock in my head.
I am not a fool to spend this precious time left over chasing unattainable targets; I am a mortal, destined to die at some point or another.
It's wise enough to accept my limitations; I know I might get a few more decades to stay alive if I can give it a try and run fast enough to grab the keys.
If not comedy, what is it 'to dream like a man who wants to concur the sandstorm in the desert, neither he possesses capabilities nor does he see any possibility.'
Let me sit here under the shade of a tree and take a nap, recollecting all my life: how beautifully I have lived, how many great souls I've interacted with, how many beautiful people I have touched. Let me recall all the fragrance I have smelled, all the tastiest food I got to taste, and slip into my sweetest part of mortality — sleep.
I wish I had some grapes to snack. let it be; I don't have the patience to take out the seeds and eat them.
Oh, I see some stupid creature joining this useless race. Let me see what it is. It appears to be a dog—healthy, full of youth, with a belt around its neck. As fine as a black beauty. Oh, even this is limping. Let's talk about it and offer some relief.
Wait, why is it gazing me like as if it's going to eat me, its shitty eye is wide open, WTH it growled too, I am sure it's gonna bite my calf muscle and tear into pieces, not gonna bear that pain now, let me start running.
I continued to run for hours and realized its not even 5 minutes and it has already bitten me twice with its sharp teeth if I slow down now its going to kill me, I managed to get some chest full of breath and ran like anything to save my life, with another 2:30 mins I am at the gate with keys in hand opened the door and reached the safe zone and suddenly dog disappears, I don't see anything chasing me now, I see delicious black grapes kept at the gate for me to eat, I limped towards them, took a hand full and sat nearby pond and tasting each of them A few of them are sour and a few are sweet, but all are nice.
