eulogy
don’t get into hockey
and if you do,
don’t look beyond the star players
don’t fall in love with the fourth liners
the third wheels
the second fiddles
because they will only break your heart
over and over again
ignore their pain
ignore every year lost to high hits and slewed feet
ignore their blood staining the ice
ignore their shattered bones
and broken dreams
ignore them when they are cast aside
do not ask where these beaten boys came from
do not ask where these mangled men are going
don’t wipe their tears
don’t stitch up their slashed chins
don’t promise them a home
that isn’t yours to give
and above all,
when you do:
don’t look away

Some things happened to me in my formative years
that I don't want to tell you about
but some things happened to you too.
Salvage by Hedgie Choi
Thomas Lohnes / Christian Petersen / Loop Images / Claus Andersen / Anadolu / Icon Sportswire
#that last image was taken seconds after Connor hit the goal post and fully believed he broke his ankle#it has been haunting me ever since I found it#and this poem has been haunting me ever since I found it#connor mcdavid#hockey poetry#tw animal violence#tw blood#tw animal death#tw road kill#my collage

Nicklas Bäckström & the Washington Capitals (+ nickeovi) ― Immortality, Clare Harner | insp.
credits: x. x. x. x. x. x. x. x. x. x.
#uh. it has not been done yet right?#because the whole thing was kickstarted by another nicke post with a caption that read something like#“he really did say do NOT weep on my grave you're so annoying”#but i cant find it anymore#edit: found it! tysm @lafragolina <3#& by association i did not find other edits w nicke and this poem in particular#so i hope i did not rip anyone off -- in case let me know i'll delete#apropos of this poem i don't know how common knowledge it is (i did not know for once but i also do not read poetry that often so)#it is often attribuited to the wrong author one mary elizabeth frye who used to hand out copies of this poem w her name attached to it#she even changed some lines! anyway i linked the wiki article if you wanna check out more info -- its interesting#nicklas backstrom#nicklas bäckström#alexander ovechkin#washington capitals#nickeovi#819#hockey rpf#hockey poetry
