Did you see him rise or
did the tears in your eyes
blind you?

the few who did
embraced each other,

in another time
it might have been called
a zombie apocalypse,

( wrap your lips around that and
call him a cat if you can)

I think I was in Wimbledon,
got the news on
Tennis Radio,
so
I didn't see him rise either,
but
I think I'll believe it.
