Alive, and free, in an American game
When last is last
And I have moved
Beyond the space of movement
Into still
Please know that I
Was the only enemy I had
The only source of discomfort known
Was truly me
And to look up and see
That ball fly free
Into the great wide sky and beyond
Any confines of mortal men alive
In those moments I smiles
More than wider can wide
Because there I was free
And with those teammates most alive
And inline
Saying "good game"
That was me
