Synecdoche

For a split second everything goes dark when I put you on. You fold my ears inward but then pop them back to normal causing momentary deafness. Even though sounds are able to pass freely through you, you make it seem like there is nothing there but the voice of the quarterback. The grated front seems like vision is impaired, but it is like it is not even there. Your padding protects my memories and abilities from the enemy of that day. The blank space on the outside like a canvas ready to be painted by the artist with decals and battle scars. I am glad someone made you to do what seems unnecessary to some but a savior to most.
