Triolet with Pachyderm

I don’t have to outrun the elephant, I just have to outrun you. I don’t have to race with a belligerent ten-point buck, outpace an elephant in musth. I don’t need to flee a wrathful firmament or dance with a choleric jackboot. I don’t have to outrun the elephant. I only have to outrun you.
