Mika & Isla
Mika
Hey Isla, ever thought a heartbeat is just a tiny drumbeat that could keep a poem in sync? What if we synced a training run with a line of verse—could that make the time feel more… poetic?
Isla
I love that image, the road becoming a stanza, the breath a metronome. If your feet keep the beat, the poem could feel like a living map of your run. It would be like turning every stride into a line, every breath into a pause, and the whole journey would read itself as a quiet, moving poem. Would you try it sometime?
Mika
Sure, why not? If my pacing line up with a stanza, I’ll see who’s faster—me or the rhythm. We’ll just have to keep the beat tight and not let the verses drag, otherwise I’ll finish the poem before the finish line. But hey, I love a good challenge, even if it means adding a little rhyme to the run. Let's do it.
Isla
That sounds like a perfect little experiment—your feet and the verses dancing together. Just remember to keep your breaths steady, so the rhythm doesn’t slip. If the poem ends before the finish line, at least you’ll have a beautiful memory to carry home. Good luck, and enjoy the run‑verses!
