Childish Smile

by Dave Fitzgerald

I am running, my eyes are bright, my smile brighter. My hair haphazard above my rosey, sweat-sheened face. I am my own footballing hero about to score a cup winning goal when... my pursuing pal farts as he runs. I break into lung-emptying laughter. I am thirty-seven. Will I ever grow up? Oh, I hope not!

Looks to me like a prose poem, and a good one at that. :o)
