Touchdown Poem by Michael Philips

Touchdown

Rating: 5.0


As he crosses into
the end zone
and the crowd
ejaculates in rapture,
that’s the money shot.
Now he jumps
into the stands
to merge with adulation.
That’s what I would do -
hug my lovers tight as we swoon
with simultaneous orgasms.
But I’m home watching it on TV.
I have no stands to jump into.
My desk is messy.

This is a funny representation of how ''in to'' sports men do seem to get. I would never have these thoughts while watching sports on t.v................never. Great poem. The last line really brings you back to reality. Nice touch. Sincerely, mary
