Jordanesque In My Ballet

I said you couldn’t hold me,
I told you I must scold thee.

Play tight and I will break free,
Play off and I must stroke three.

Twisting, writhing, jerking,
Shooting J’s and smirking.

You should be at work; box and clerking,
While I am here, going berserking.

Game is on today,
TOLD you I must slay.

Lebron-like in my foray,
Jordanesque in my ballet.
