Clutch (Sixty-Seven)
At the field,
Scarred Sixty Seven
Stands center stage.
Lacrosse stick grasped,
Ready to beat.
0:29 Remain:
Bruised Sixty Seven reaches,
She receives,
and runs.
But she shouldn’t be at the game
At all.
0:17 On the Clock:
Cut Sixty Seven calls,
catches, cradles,
She’s clutch.
But Daddy told her
Not to go.
0:06 Seconds:
Scabbed Sixty Seven sprints,
slides, and shoots.
5 Seconds Gone:
a goal.
Her disobedience,
avenged.
Back at home,
Scared Sixty Seven
Shivers.
Lacrosse stick clutched,
Ready to be beaten.
Among her teammates,
Sixty Seven is a savior.
Alone with her Daddy,
Who will save her?
