Two On The Stairs Poem by Whitney Stevens

Two on the stairs
One walks fast with their head up
The other is slow, face down

One is set to hit their goals
The others doesn't plan to
They both will reach the top

One has reached the second flight
The other lags behind and contemplates
The meaning of the top

Upon the final flight of stairs
One is on the final step
The other sprints towards

They both decide to step together
One steps up
The other
Doesn't
