Ready

Blue men,
Micro men,
Monsters muscled,
Straining pinstripes
and monograms.

Thighs flexed,
Legs splayed,
Hands shoved
Recklessly
In pockets.

Ankles pulled
Upward slightly
Showing socks,
Not, the latest
Tan shoes.

Waiting,
Straining,
Waiting to spring,
Like horses at the gate.

To business!
To business!
