Score
Nerves
Sweating, Sticky
Hot
The ball moves to the right man
My moment
pass,pass,pass
the ball
take it, jerk left
fake
the goal
like the holy grail
Up to the line
I stop for a split second,
think, then shoot
the ball;
flies
hops
skips
wobbles
slides beyond the goalies hands
rolls
and rolls
and stops.
right after wobbling right over the line
Score.
