The Loser's Prayer

Defeat can leave you winded,
So take the jeers of the fair-weather fans,
Those who dare not play,
and breathe them all in.
Defeat can leave you exhausted,
So take all of those hateful words,
and swallow them down inside of you.
Defeat is thirsty work indeed,
So drink in the sickening feel of it.
Defeat can leave you cold,
So wrap yourself in the hate of it.
If you lost this week,
It is time to rebuild.
It is time to reload,
Because the only one on the field this week
Who can stop you again next week
Is you.
