How often, it seems
to me, an error
proves to be the key
that opens doors
to unforeseen
prosperity, while ex-
ecutions less
imperfect in their ex-
cellence lead
nowhere, as when a mishit
dribbler sparks a
rally, while the blistered
liner settles into
leather, to snuff
the home team’s
hopes. This is the vexing stuff
of life and luck. I
wish that I could forecastZachariah
