Colt Jolt Voly Bolt

There are many things in this world that may be faster but watching Usain Bolt run 9.58sec in the 100m was mine boggling. I watch, like all those in Berlin and the millions around the world who had access, with the expectation to see Usain Bolt win and given that his real competition for the race were gone, I thought he would not be encourage to run his best. If he didn’t run his best then, how really fast can he go?

 

 

Colt Jolt Volt Bolt

 

Competitions have shown young horses to run

Outrageously fast when the race has begun

Like a bullet shot from a fired gun 

They dart around the track until the race is won

 

Just as the fierce shaking comes and goes

Or tremors unsettle the most stabled toes

Like seismic waves make buildings juxtapose

The quake shakes faster than anyone knows

 

Violent burst of unharnessed electricity

Over and over to scorch those in proximity

Like the flash of light through the galaxy

The lightning spreads faster than your eyes can see

 

But he’s no horse though he runs like a colt

Other athletes claimed tremors like the track took a jolt

Lots liken his speed to having a lightning volt

This 19.19 in the 200m could only be ran by Usain Bolt
