Poem & Photo by Adam Dustus
Fever pitch, hold my breath
Veiling streaks shine laser-etched
Striking light for splits to save
Raucous chorus of kids through games

Mindless fun, we all need some
Adults drink beer, their little ones run
Mesmerizing these blurs that beam
Blink real fast, call it a dream

Scores irrelevant through alley cheers!
Gutter balls and lightening smears
Crashing thunder through stale smelling air
About the game, who really cares?
*
Marvel at lanes, pick up despair
Talk is why my friends go there
Prompting smiles, making fun
Cosmic bowling, anyone?
