In Apache Indian, the word Chicago means breaker of streaks
In Apache Indian, the word Chicago means breaker of streaks
Everyone’s eyes trained on
one man--
Expected to
harness the frenzy,
again.
Not since…
has one player…
Excited voices
nonetheless
trailing off.
Knowing:
That this game
is a game
Not of man but of many.
Numbers slapped on numbers
like clay.
Each move
meaningless
If the cup
can’t hold Daddy’s coffee
or Baby’s juice.
The shoemaker’s elves
more important
than the shoemaker.
