Game 94

Round Two - Game Six
CHI 73               CLE 94

I used to savor things more

I was great at enjoying things--
Almost competitive

Milkshakes
That I would drink as slow
As I could

Letting things linger
Every step of the way

Like one of those
Bike races
Where the object is to come in last

Wobblingly
Teeteringly slow

Swooping close to the ground
But never falling

Almost in denial
Of the rules
Of physical science--

Of the temporal nature
Of all things

Bullieving I could make a moment
Last forever
