Week 2: Frank (1-0) vs. Clockwerk (1-0) \\ Frank wins via quasi-no-show

[Frank]

The line around the corner clinged to a crevice of a decrepit curb
The tents, lawn chairs and umbrellas were all set up everywhere, rest assure -
I was going to get the new Jordans if it meant I had to camp on concrete, unkempt,
The concern for our safety meant these expensive shoes could cause death: from the heard, steps of unrelenting yearn...
The "Nocturns" glowed during the daytime, made your retinas burn
40 hour week + over time, there goes the check you just earned.
Outside the store, tents - mesh, thermal, fluorescent and stern.
Thousands sat inside the breathable material protective of germs.
Overnight - waiting for the store to open, I slept, tossed, restlessly turned
Having Nightmares of clearance sales or having to get them returned.
Unzipping the tent... I stood up on the New York street corner: off the bed of the curb.

"Even in defeat, there's a valuable lesson. learned."
