The Event came and went

the planning
the worry
the paranoia
the pressure

the fleeting pleasure
the cost
the pain of
loss

hold the memory
confirmed certified
it happened
a realized dream

oh the excitement
the booze and the losers
dawn de-hydration, the waking
on a strange floor

the shadows of recollections
halos floating in fog
in the event the Event
came and went
