DustDevil

I wonder if 
the dust cloud 
I’ve been running 
from and so
desperately trying to 
avoid and dodge 
isn’t one of 
my own making 
and rather than 
trying to catch 
up with me 
is really trying 
to get away
and simply disappear 
sometimes we try
so very hard 
to get away 
from things that 
aren’t really there
