When you play, sometimes--
sometimes--the moon turns her back.
You can't see her face.
Estrada's gotta hinder Erstad.
Erstad's gotta touch the plate.
You're binary stars.
Orbit. Tempt. Brush off a kiss.
Slow. Reverse afresh.
Erstad's gotta beat Estrada.
Estrada got the ball too late.
Estrada got no time to balance.
Erstad got a full-speed stride.
You're not free. You dance
to gravity's melody.
Two bodies, one space.
Erstad got a quick decision:
Estrada? Nada. They collide.
You fall in concert,
absorbed into the moment.
The game owns your flesh.
