Poem
There was a knock We stopped doing our tik tok Opened the opportunity door A cable guy was there from the local electronics’ store With orders from the mother ship He handed me a grid iron script I was chosen Stood there in shock and frozen Wearing his prop the NFL mask He entered to do his communication task I must have stock And now I was on the clock Was my thought Wondering if my athletic product was going to be bought Continuing to assemble the device It was a camera that had a nice retail price Do I owe you for the house call? No just go and play football When that green light flashes You will be seen by the masses Stay calm when you are on Was the cable guy’s comment Knowing that I really wanted it You are now a rookie Your background is known by everyone even the bookie As he left I tipped him money to bet Knowing I will be a selection Not a rejection After the internet inspection First night came and went Green light had no transmission sent Was my small box in tune? With what the virtual production was doing? Picks were made Yet I did not hear if I made the grade Two hundred was the one that had the call And I started to plan applying for that job at the mall It is a nice Radio Shack A nice wage no reason to pack Centered in a strategic place Making money when I put a smile on my face All of a sudden it came The television said my name The green light started to blink A giant interest I did think I got a shot To put my talents in the NFL pigskin pot Securing the final draft slot And a reservation spot On the simple rookie cot
