Poem
Somewhere on the hardwood 
Play grounders said you were good 
Talent agent brought you indoors 
They were really fir sure 
In between the flashing lights 
Gleaming and bright 
Loud noises 
Drowning out sociable voices 
You were able to score 
More and More 
Traveling to different cites on a promotional sporting exhibition tour 
Whether it was taking trains, planes or automobiles 
You avoided the defensive steals 
Moving a team from the land known for lakes 
Franchise success deemed the spectacle not a fake 
It was a city nicknamed angels 
Fame and fortune façade had no danger 
Ad mist the wild fiery glow 
“It’s like you know” 
A place where shaking ground could make one honestly state ‘it’s time to go’ 
Two or three points defined the scoring way 
Navigating through the polluted gray 
All done for contractual pay 
For plastic 
Making all these baskets 
Or was the glamour true 
Better than representing the red white and blue 
Wearing 76er colors gold medal cool 
Freedom has been under the microscopic test 
Maybe it was our attitude touting ‘we are the best’  
Everybody now sinks field goals in a bubble 
Due to health care trouble 
Staying six feet apart 
Following rules from the CDC chart 
Making issue not wearing face masks visiting the mini mart 
Taking away life’s trusting fun 
Infecting the idea ‘going out and getting sun’ 
Reported many are resting in peace 
Not much word if there are markers acknowledging all the deceased 
Many times celebrities were welcomed nice gestures 
Acts could be putting on pressure 
In the same fashion as an artistic academic coach professor 
Remember when getting the open clear lane 
During this civil game 
Where not bouncing a ball is a walk
Penalized turnover people whisper and talk 
Four others work together performing in the show 
Passing around this round rock  
Skills learned respectfully in friendly competition on the block 
Swishing into the nets 
Nightly one hundred a team is supposed to get 
Sending people home entertained not upset 
While flying in the air 
Doesn’t matter who taunted the dare 
It is what it is
