On your mark. Get set! Their off!

In a race down the highway

From nowhere to somewhere

Destination unknown.

Two contestants are racing

"Reality" versus "Fantasy."

Aligned, parallel, side by side

They go!

Then... in a blink of an eye

Always the winner

The first to cross...

The finishing line

"Reality"

"Reality " awaits 

At journeys end.

The "Fantasy" gone

But the Dreams live on.
