Number 73
A joint. A gun. A pigskin. A heart. 
 From a reefer's reel to a ref's whistle
 A fire cracker blast to a rhythm.
 
 A weapon to an escape
 Threat to longing
 A window to a door
 
 Cold feet to protecting cleats
 A hand grasping, change into empty air
 False hope to a future
 
 Ending to beginning
 Superman erupts
 Alone into a team
 
 Regret is splendid
 Fuel for the down
 Anger to the rival
 
 Cold-turkey to pigskin
 Flat to textured
 Secret to secret
 
 Fist to lip
 Hand to heart
 Shaking to steady
 
 Turf blast to body
 Saving grace
 Signal of life
 
 Pain is love
 Fuel for the down
 Breath to the win
 
 Blunt to sharp
 Flying to grounded
 Blitzed to blitz
 
 Ragged exhale
 Choked stagger
 Swimming
 
 Racing lungs
 Adrenaline zoom
 Gasping unison
 
 Lifeless
 Denying
 Angry sanity
 
 Real
 Embrace
 Zealous insanity
 
 Secret to secret
 Success to success
 Revolution for the win.
