The Rail Contest

 


The Rail Contest


By Craig Wilson


The smoke clears. I am at a skatepark.

I do not remember going to a skate park.

I look at myself in the mirror; I am a teen.

I have somehow become a teenager again.

I see I am wearing some skateboarding gear.

Some teen girl introduces herself as my pal.

My friend reminds me I am in the contest.

So, I grab my skateboard, and I start skating.

The crowd reacts enthusiastically, which helps.

I really impress the judges who watch me.

My phone goes off, and I quickly wake up.


The End
