My Offwhite Flag

I copped a feel
Of the wall
Trying to find the light switch in the dark
Then I got into bed and fell at last asleep, quickly
It’s been awhile since I played the game
I’ve been retired since Saturday
From the first base line I watched those blondes
So perfectly flirting
And I held my off-white flag between my knees
Limply
It’s been awhile since I played the game
I’ve been retired since Saturday
I am a child
And I’m not ready
It’s been awhile since I played the game
I’ve been retired since Saturday
I am a child
And I’m not ready
