The Comeback snapped the ball
and looked desperately for somebody open--
I stood in the endzone
franticallywaving my
handsjumping
sporadicallyyy
HEY! I'M OPEN!!!
With an eye-roll hardly concealed
within a muddy helmet,
he begrudgingly tossed me the ball--
The buzzer sounded
and the fourth quarter ended
just as the ball was in my sweaty clutch--
But the visiting team had already clapped
each other on the backs and
my team waited for me in the
locker room
smelly and defeated.
Alas, I was the most distressed,
standing on the field alone
with the winning boon
a moment
too late.
