The Yankees, my boyhood favorite team, imploded Wednesday night and lost the World Series :(
The loss caused me to suffer exquisite agony. Exquisite Agony is a turn of phrase I rarely use, but when I do I really feel it!
It describes pain I experience in an extremely raw and gnawing way. I feel it down to my very core.
It is a feeling which borders on enhanced anxiety that is not sought nor frequented.
I consider it an intense signal from my mind and body that I am alive!
Yes, 2 days later, I am still suffering the 6 outs and 5 runs the Yankees gave the Dodgers in the worst inning I ever witnessed.
Alas, I am alive, but my beloved, inept Yankees are not!
