Analysis of The Marathon

I came upon a sunlit dream
          Reality of time .
Moving in the shadows
Of a place I cannot find .

I came upon a prophet
Of the future space to be .
A member of the stock exchange
A banking man to see .

His stocks and bonds and dividends
       Weigh heavy on his mind.
As he plods along the city streets
     A place where he might hide .

From the taxes and the people
From  the truth he cannot see .
He's running through the city streets .
           A man without a dream.

A crooked man a blind man ,
    A peace he cannot find .
For the stocks and bonds and dividends
             Weigh heavy on his mind .
