#elimination
I learned to spar with my stray thoughts, Every ounce of fear or anxiety, Becomes a battle of wit. Though that may not work for everyone, Some just build lanterns, A way to see through the night. Others learn to silence their worries, Utilizing weapons to wipe away their nightmares, Burning holes where there once was doubt.

Tactics To Eliminate Worry
The sun and moon eliminates The draining darkness life creates But my past constantly berates As my future wiggles free and escapes ©2023

No one is our enemy No one is our remedy. It is only the situation To take careful elimination. In our imagination With many ambitions.

It is only the situation
Fanatics fixed their eyes upon The screen to cheer their team The mood there in the air was tense Tricolor seemed out of steam The clock was counting down The time was drawing nigh Doomed to lose and head on home Bid Russia their goodbye An errant shot deflected out Gave them one last chance To score a goal and prance about Show off their famous dance From the corner, the ball soared in A hero rose above Mina smacked it with his head And won his country's love England shocked to see the win Snatched right from their grasp Colombia delirious Successful at last gasp And thus the game was sent along Into the overtime Two periods were played to nil Two teams full in their prime Penalties would now decide Which team would advance The locals glued to their tvs The nation in a trance Falcao scores! Kane as well! Cuadrado, Rashford too! Muriel then strikes one home Tricolor up three to two! Ospina blocks the next one Hypes up the frenzied crowd But Uribe hits the crossbar And the silence echoes loud Trippier knots it up again We're down to final shots Bacca fails to get his through Past Pickford's valiant swat Fate rests upon this final kick Well placed with perfect spin Just past Ospina's outstreched hands Dier seals the win The cafeteros reel from shock No sign of jubilation But still the crowd, crushed in defeat Show their appreciation Colombia eliminated We give them all a hand And though their World Cup here is done I'm now their biggest fan
