Never could stop!!!








Music... a hum... a rhythm... a trance


dribble... dribble...


There was always music from the first time... only the hum...


dribble... dribble...


Sometimes it felt as if flying...


dribble... dribble...


already twisted ankle...


dribble... dribble...


fingers remind that they have been broken...


dribble... dribble...


The crescendo increases... there always was a hum... it always felt like a trance...





Speed... was always missing...


was never swift...


Agility... hardly...


Power ... never quite enough...


Talent... no associations absolutely...





But it was natural... always natural...


Never belonged to any team...


Never was the best...


Never was noticed...


Never the one for whose team people would fight to be in...





Never felt tired...





Injuries didnt matter...


broken glasses didnt matter


torn clothes didnt matter





There always was a hum...


a trance always...


everything closed around and nothing but the rhythm mattered...





More than anything...





The swish...


And another swish then...





I am back...

Who cares???

Doesnt matter... Does to me...






Thanks T,MT, Princess...


apologies Prude...
