The Rusty Wire Service

That eerie zone one enters Where the slightest of miscalculations  Will result in almost certain death;  Or at least a bloody good maiming. It’s not necessarily that time slows down.  It’s only that the germane presents itself.  And with such flimsy inputs, wouldn’t you a lso  Fool your brain into slowing down a speeded-up situation? It doesn’t matter w hether it’s hitting  The right racing line on a blind curve at 90 in the dark  Or gauging the golden moment in a confrontation  Before it turns critical; the sensation is always the same.  Stepping over, almost imperceptibly, i rrevocably into a world  You can’t leave without first taking a throw of the dice.
