Chalk Line Sprint

Too much indoor bounce, so I zipped straight outside into the courtyard sunshine! Right along the rough paving stones, a thick stick of neon pink sidewalk chalk was rolling toward a drainage seam. Moving target! I sprinted at full velocity, threw my heels down, and skidded flat on the chalk cylinder like a runaway skate! Screeech! The chalk ground into the pavement, leaving a blazing bright magenta streak three feet long before snapping in half! The sudden halt pitched me into a flying somersault, landing splash-flat in a cluster of dry yellow dandelion heads. My plush soles are glowing hot pink, and that runway line looks totally electric!
