Perhaps this gives too much away...



I would like to set myself up as some sort of opposite


I am listening to the Rocky soundtrack and it is hard
to separate from love. My life in montage before me;
I am no screen icon, I have no speech problem. I have no desire

to box; or for the chap himself. Here is the day-to-day
we never learn of him: I like coffee and muffins, get athlete's foot
whether I run or not, and prefer being bendy to strong.

But when I run a race in the name of charity, I know
which tune will be trickling through my brain; that at the finish
it will take all my strength to restrain my arms.
