Free Verse

Clock ticking down
Tick Tock, Tick Tock
So much sweat running down your face you can almost drown
Blood flowing through your veins

Fourth quarter, down by two, basketball in your hands
This is your chance
Your chance to prove the haters wrong
Prove that you are a big time player

Ten seconds remaining
Dribbling down the court
You notice fear in your defender's eye
This is your chance

You rise up for the shot
From the top of the three point line
You feel the ball rolling slowly off your fingertips
You sense it going in

Swoosh!
The crowd explodes like an atomic bomb
