Pull with my right arm, and
Kick
Pull with my left arm, and
Kick
I know I've been doing this
Forever
These long sets are
Frustrating Annoying Terrible
But they give me time to
Think
Like how right now I can let my mind drift to
Anything
And no one will
Care
That I'm caught up in my own
World
The world in my
Head
Where I can do anything I want
As long as I'm still
Swimming
When the set finally
Ends
I will be kicked out of my
Head
And back into
Reality
Where I have to
Listen
To find out what I have to do
Next
Until practice is
Over
I really like this poem! I love the lines;
ReplyDeleteWhen the set finally
Ends

Beautiful the way you arranged the words. They're like swimming. You've captured it well, Jack.
ReplyDeleteI loved the ending and also thought that you opened it in a nice way. Cool poem Jack.
