Diving for the flag
twisting for elusive purposes
The big game
annual and postprandial
slipping she falls,
nose broken, eyes watering
her age 73
my age 26
blood and ambulance ride await her
guilty looks await me
even my teammates are displeased
down by 5, I had no choice
competition knows no age
(seriously I never came close, she slipped on her own- but that story makes for poor poetry...not that this version is any better)
postprandial \post-PRAN-dee-uhl\, adjective:
Happening or done after a meal.
