It may not wake Cam.
It wasn’t at all clear he would have retrieved the ball
But now he was reliving the moment
Knowing he had more than failed
Millions of people saw his hesitation
No, that’s not right.
He backed off from the scrum
Five, no eight other guys dove for the ball
The video, showed it a thousand times,
Clear, unmitigated and condemning
Commentators in Spanish and English
Spoke of his failure…cowardice.
A season of highs, well earned, erased.
All the elations, summersaults into the end zone, trashed.
Oh god, let me sleep.
