Basketball
March 30, 2012
Pounding balls
trampling feet
injured pride
scraped knees
such a dangerous sport
yet
it's such a rush
heart pounding
pulse racing
salt stinging your eyes
muscles aching
did you know
people are watching
steal the ball
lose the ball
insults hurled
praises rewarded
bodies collide
an elbow to the gut
asprained ankle
oops...
I think you got hurt
game over
next player please
