“June 23rd, 2010”

The Commander cut McChrystal
on summer’s third day while
World Cup and Wimbledon
waged on continents away.

Donovan scored so quickly;
Isner and Mehut took seven hours...
Across the Atlantic at the All England,
and also in Africa, we watched our men
do so well. The world also won Wednesday:
two sports and one united winner.
