our time;
The timer stops and our time has come.
More still than someone in hiding we stand.
Sweat leaks from the faces of my peers around me.
Nerves are twitching and finally
The whistle informs us that the spotlight is on us.
A cadence.
And
Left.
Right.
Left.
Right.
The crowd is not yet attentive as we glide into place.
Finally
Set one has been set and...
The show begins.
A beautiful array of chaos surrounds us.
Excitement.
Focus.
"3.25 steps from the home hash."

time.
Bask in the glory; absorb the applause.
Take in a deep breath satisfaction.
Another job well done.
