Unfair advantage his legs?

Facing Russia the teams tied
Recover and hit

They Look

Contemplating the faces of courage…

   They Look

Pain is an answer
And quick. Tougher than they look
Young Irish dancers

Impressed…

Looks Like

Contemplating travail…

When you work too hard
Burn out looks like depression
Don’t play that last card

The last card being whatever desperation brings…

Possibility

Contemplating hope, and not…

   Possibility

Hopeless not always
Lack of possibility
Sometimes mood’s decay

   -gl-

Emotion is real. But not always reality…

At the End

Contemplating darkness…

   At the End

When there is no light
At the end of the tunnel
Sometimes lack of sight

   -gl-

Or the tunnel curves…
Or the eyes might be shut…
Or might be facing the wrong direction…

Just thinking…
