what i love most


What I love most
about being in derby

is the non-being of everything
else
in the
moment.

I am aware
after practice
in the shower
on the table
iced down
wrapped up

that is an illusion I must let go of as well.

  2. It's really really difficult to write about. I wish I were more comfortable with creative-nonfic. :\
