MARBLES

I’d rather be racing  
Marbles with you  

Building up structures  
And testing them too  
 
Making up teams  
And naming each racer  
 
See if my longshot  
Can beat your first placer  
 
Yet here I am not far  
But away still  
 
My head hurts at times  
From the a/c’s harsh chill  
 
Stuck dealing with-  
Check out this word- the dross  
 
My son, feels like maybe  
My marbles I’ve lost
