Speed

You're standing at the top of a towering cliff...
The cold wind is blowing in your face, freezing.
Suddenly... You jump off, spinning 180°, rotating,
twisting, spinning again, always picking up speed...

Accellerating, spinning, tumbling and spinning again.
Suddenly... You're inside a rollercoaster which runs
with speeds greater than you ever could imagine.
360°, 180°, 720°, 360°, twist, 180° and again...

Suddenly... You're Snowboarding from a mountain,
cold snow spraying beside you, faster and faster,
twisting, jumping, accellerating, time after time...
Always picking up speed, jumping into the nexus.

Suddenly... You're entering a wormhole,
accellerating into speeds thought impossible,
going faster and faster, never fast enough.
Bending the galaxy to your will.
Slowing time, almost to a complete stop.

Then.... You start focussing..
Reality slides into view.
You're sitting at a bus-stop...
....waiting for the bus....
