POEM - Turkey Bowl

Really
I am glad
I was able
To get out there

Run with the young kids
Impress them
Push back the line
Display my dad strength
That strength
Fueled by
Showing off
Unrestricted
By good sense

That was this morning
But all good things end
I had to drive home
And things settled
Got a chance to rest
And realize exactly
How much damage was done

So this afternoon
I am thankful for
A warm home
Couches
Remote controls
Vacation days
Turkey dinner
And a family
Who didn’t play football
And can still reach my shoes
To unlace them
Now that I
Temporarily disabled

Can’t
