Focus and concentration takes over The ever so meek and small figure, The water glistens and the voices shout, Her body pounds Lik a punk rockers drums, She soothes her hands along her bathing suit, Gently places her hands on the block, Then grazes them over the Top the whistle blows and voices shriek, She steps onto the waiting Block and sees the stillness, Breath, Wait, Think, And then through a stretching of stillness He Booms TAKE YOUR MARKS The Swim All the strokes were Crisp Smooth Strong Fresh Powerful Exceptional Takes the lead Until every face begs with unsounding screams so quick so quick so quick Right before the shouts The touch..........it's ME.
