The moment where you feel the light coming off your body, 

Borne on the breeze as though you are incandescent, 

Brilliance unending

The weight of your intentions gone at that moment,

 existing only to provide illumination and warmth

Feeling the breath move through your body while the faithful heartbeat does the rest

The slap, slap, slap on your feet on the asphalt, 

Constant, propelling you forward

The radiance glows from your face, shining from your smile and you know,

In that moment,

You are Mercury 

Quicksilver messenger of the Gods

Untouched by mortal concerns

Free to race onwards eternally
