Ode to bowling ball
The CRASHING sound from the pins, like a stampede
Of a rhino running through the bearin wasteland, the feeling of the release
Throwing my troubles down the 40 feet ravine.
Those smug trees teasing me, “haha your not good enough”,
I’ll prove them wrong, I’ll show you. The speed is picking up,
Can hear the rumbling of the rhino's feet, causing fear, doubt, preparing for failure. 10 more feet, 5 more seconds, this is it
The moment we’ve been waiting for.
Boom STRIKE!!!
That’s one
This is it, we’re in the endgame now
2 more tries to get that perfect game, almost there
Here it goes like a raging bull BOOM!!!
That’s Two
One more try, that sweat in my hands when I held you in my hands
The trust we built together for 4 long years
Your blue and black, like a bruised on someone’s arm
But it’s not a bruise, it’s a scar for you.
We could have had the 300.
But that’s fine 290 works too 🤷♂️
