With a satellite sweep we find her. She is currently bombing down 122nd Street with no signs of slowing. We watch her slide right by the interstate, she isn't even trying to get away, she knows exactly where she is going. Coordinates link, GPS greenscreens watching a red dot draw closer.
"Run so fast, run so deep,
Never gon' catch me on these streets.
Run all nigh', run all day,
We both know I'm gon' get away."
Forty yards, then fifty, she accelerates. So do we, in our own way, diverting more resources as we do to view her progress. The Territorial Border isn't even two kilometers from here, her chances grow exponentially by the moment.
"Run so fast, run so deep,
Never gon' catch me in my streets.
Run all nigh', run all day,
We both gon' watch me get away."
Our headsets crackle with her dry laughter, cackling on like a Shakespearian witch. With a melodramatic gesture, she folds in on herself--a mid-stride bow--and explodes for the Great Divider.
"Run so fast, run so deep,
Never gon' find me in my sleep.
Run all nigh', run all day,
We both knew I's gon' get away."

Anonymousabout 17 years agoI've been reading your poetry on the New Poem's page and on the PF&D forum. I enjoy it; your poetry is fresh with interesting phrasing and good imagery, that and you have kick-ass titles.
Anonymousabout 17 years agoQuite inventive. I like the idea of mixing a prose poem with song lyrics.
Excellent attention to detail with the prose, details like
'Coordinates link, GPS greenscreens watching a red dot draw close'
help build a vivid picture for the reader. Am a little confused by the title, though. I'm assuming that 'MoanLisé' is the name of the woman being chased, but it sounds a little odd
(since the character isn't that much like the Mona Lisa, which it presumably refers to)
