A Little Basketball

I watched a little basketball To cheer the U.S.A., Though it’s a sport I’d never follow Any other day. I also caught some swimmers Wit their strokes in perfect form, Racing in their lanes in record time, As if that were the norm. Now I’m waiting for the gymnasts, With their super-human feats, Hoping when the golds are given, There might be a few repeats. The Olympics gives us glimpses Into how, when one’s obsessed, That results in a performance Leaving everyone impressed.
