So I’m in retirement now.

I’ve made it around the plates,

and I’m home free.

All that life.

Spent working every day.

Day in, day out.

All the people I met along the way.

I wonder where they are now.

I wonder if they wonder where I am.

I made it home, though.

One to nothing.

I win.

I guess next week, no one will remember the score.
