  14. Despite- Its the splintered pens that keep you on the clothesline. Its like the pot boiling over seeping into your burner and caking it with salt spots. Its kicking your feet into the red brown of the dugout sand, aching to crunch the grass and feel the smooth metal handle of the bat. These are your despites; when you finish that ramen. When your hand shakes from the ball’s contact as you fling the bat high into the sun, and even though the third basemen catches your foul ball, you sit back down in that dugout kicking the mud-brown sand with grass stained toes and despite not touching a base you are happy.
