Daily Writing Practice: Tribal Rhythms

Prompt for today: tribal rhythms

1st Attempt:

The soft, constanst sound,
the foot, pounding the dirt,
thump, thump, thump,
pounding out it's own tribabl rhythm.

The heart beating in time,
thum-thump, thum-thump,
adding to the beat.

The breath, coming more labored now,
inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale,
loudly, it is dominating now.

The sound of blood pumping,
rush inside my head,
swoosh, swoosh, swoosh,
it's become it's own song.

There in the distance,
the finish line,
the tribal rhythms of my body,
have carried me through the run.
