Postquoital Shrinkage
© Stephen Whiteside 19.10.2012
Have you ever noticed that the world seems slightly larger,
When the quoits are flying freely and your pulse is racing fast;
That the colours all glow brighter and the noises are much louder
When the game is at its climax - but of course it cannot last.
Have you ever noticed that the world seems slightly smaller
When the game at last has ended and you're sitting in your chair;
That the colours all seem muted and the noises all are softer
As your pulse begins its slowing, and you sit and dumbly stare.

So when a streaker invades the pitch during a game that must be quoitus interruptus
