The Ball
  
  
  It is dark and so stinky                                            
  sweaty and gross                                                      
  Get me out of this glove                                           
  I hate it the most                                                        
  
  He finally pulls me
  I smell popcorn and candy
  I get a good glimpse
  BAT! Dirty and sandy
  
  Back in the glove
  he spins me around
  Then squeezes me tight
  while on top of the mound
  
  He whips his arms back
  with power and strength
  He fires me forward
  About to be cranked
  
  I’m hit in the air
  I can touch the sky
  I blow past the birds
  I can really fly
  
  Now down I go
  Are they gonna score?
  YES! Yes they do
  The crowd starts to ROAR!
  
  YES! They have done it
  the Tigers have won
  Game 7 of the series
  now all is done
  
  I was the ball
  Who was hit in front of a billion
  Now me, this lucky ball
  I’m worth at least a million!
