KO

Puffy eye tired
Slow blinking
Stay awake

Knee cracking stretch
Silent groaning
Step forward

Fighting fists defeated
Slouching stance
Punching air

Counting down to none
Slow motion falling
Fade to black


I wrote this several weeks back in the midst of my crazy deadlines.  It was a bad day for sure.  My favorite thing though was when I sent this out to some of my PotD peeps.  (Poem of the Day...they are usually very silly...the poems, not the peeps ;)  Anyway, one of them said he pittied the opponent.  I'd written it as the defeated.  It was a nice bit of encouragement from a good friend.
