A Sport of Body, A Body of Mind
by Caleb Klein
My mental state is all my hope
A body from the head afloat
So, drop the legs and let me cry
For state of mind, my legs will go
A sinking ship a shattered mind
It sees no need and no will to find
The hidden stash, the winner's cup
It narrows sight it will survive
I'm out the job, I'm out of luck
I'm frozen cold December-struck
Distraught distressed just let me cope
And soon enough I will get up
The battle back is from below
The miles long, the meters slow
I state the miles soon will grow
For state of mind, my legs will go
