Strapping on my goggles
I was hoping to see Meadowlark
But every time I toggled
All I got was Meta-lark
youthful , we were
a basketball neurosurgeon
godlike psychopathy

Bronny James’ game
came up lame
demoted to the 'G-League'
~ fawning media's shame
It was very cold outside.
I had a basketball game we tied.
I went to go eat some turkey.
I saw the pool; it was frozen and murky.
Ill innocent cellular lively intracellular lifeless ice lazy plush ice cold LOVE-

POEMS 12 TO BE THE BEST
TO BE THE BEST YOU HAVE TO BE TRUE & KIND PERSON.
TO BE THE BEST YOU HAVE A VERY HAPPY LONING SOUL.
Baby bears bounce basketballs, but not before playing blind mans bluff.

Old Man Bianco his vocal voice
stripped of all it’s octave choice
creaked and crowed in age and vice
“Liquor, tobacco, you pay the price!”
Don't be a football,
Thrown and kicked down the field
Like rocks of nature;
Rather, be a bouncing ball
Sowing and reaping life's goals
There is a fellow named Paul
Who loves to play basketball
He can run, shoot and pass
And score lightning fast
And is only three feet tall
My scars look like stripes
I am almost a tiger
Her fingers caress my furs
Like brushes on unfinished paintings
And she laughs like a whip
My school is a very great place
My school has an awesome Basketball Court
My school has an great library
My scool is the best place to be in
I missed the toilet in the dark,
I'm always deadly as a shark,
I miscalculated -
math is overrated...
think basketball: Shoot with an arc.
Give a glass of water
To those beyond the altar
Quenching their thirst
Listening to their curse
Giving them a voice
And freedom of choice.
It's bullies Melania fights
The big one is now in her sights
If Donald should stray
His schlong she will flay
And not even give him last rites
Those college kids sure get excited when they win
while their professional counterparts barely grin
~ although they do get rich as sin
always an anchor
basketball I trust
through advancement , beneficiation and tragedy

Untimely was Hamilton Hicks
In making his basketball picks.
He knew it all well,
How each bracket fell,
But always too late with his clicks.
A basket ball player with bounce
Said, “All my opponents I'll trounce.”
But thanks to a gale
He fell on his tail,
And off in a huff he'd to flounce!
In my dream I worked really hard,
I was hurt yet fought back.
I felt pain, saw progress, and heard praise.
I conquered my fear and won the battle.
The basketball player Will Droop
Just skipped to the 'loo for a poop
Our cameras were there
To capture mid-air
This amazing Sports Channel scoop!
Wow! What a great move!
He fakes them out of their shoes!
Fifty points tonight...
Yeah, my son, 'the superstar'
~ Wish he'd treat his mother right
to be in love again
like before. like the movie.
when you can feel the universes are
all
just the right size
and everything fits like a
glove
She said... poetry or prose?
He said ; sports, basketball, Oscar...
Who are you?
I am nobody !
well i am nobody too... !
Idyll with happy ending... !
