Penalty Review

Genie...

I don’t care how you do it...

just reverse it-

I command you!

I still dream of her...

Turn all the street lights red-

blow the whistle for a timeout-

call a technical foul.

Stop the Earth from turning,

stop time from spinning its threads

for one more second;

hold the Sun from setting.

You see Genie...

there must have been some kind of mistake...

a bad call-

I am begging you-

as it just wasn’t her time to go.

Not yet...the thing is...

I’m...

simply not ready.
