Throwing<\/span>
 <\/span>

Whirring and grinding<\/span>
pressing and touching<\/span>
moist and bending<\/span>
wanting to be made<\/span>
into something of significance.<\/span>
Pulling and pushing, grit between fingertips<\/span>
Globs of slush on wrists<\/span>
Wheel between knees<\/span>
Forehead crunched<\/span>
concentration no equal<\/span>
 <\/span>
Glowing and piercing<\/span>
the sky with feelings,<\/span>
wind the illusion of moving<\/span>
pride in the doing<\/span>
teeth sparkle, cheeks blush<\/span>
pants and shirt splattered,<\/span>
show what you\u2019ve done<\/span>
your face does not deny it.<\/span>
