~phew~

Oh thank gods.

It's over.

Beautifully mucked.

I dropped it

I fell

I smeared it

I missed

I didn't get chosen

Instead...

I sit here with a beautiful absence

of potential

of stress

of pressure

And now....

I can do it a different way

with ease

with confidence

with creativity

Because I know now what the consequences are

and

(more importantly)

I know that I can live through them

anyway.
