Mental Preparations
November 15, 2016
Rage, Adrenaline, Pain
All things that drive me during the game.
The ball is snapped, my bones crack.
My mind is set fire by blue flame
The initial hit wakes me up, it’s as if the hit opens the door
Knocking it wide open and spilling the pain and suffering all over the floor.
I advance on the quarterback to take him to the ground and get a sack.
The fire burns greatly inside me, it’s like I’m nuclear reactor reaching critical mass
