End Games

I cannot begin to number the times
I stood at an imagined window
Wrapped in failure
A bad throw to first, a smile not returned

So many endgames resolved at that window,
Many climaxing from an unseen direction,
Some brilliantly others less so

All, all those crescendos are histories
That will color tomorrow’s chapters,
Reducing or eliminating yesterday’s Endgames.
