Life On The Hardwood
October 1, 2019
The game basketball
it’s fast paced and high flying
five on five action
Shoes squeak on hard cuts
elbows fly inside the lane
solid screens are set
Started by a jump
players running down the floor
the ball smacks the wood
The point guard dribbles down
directing the team’s offense
his eyes scan the court
The ball flies through air
landing in a teammate’s hands
he begins to shoot
It soars through the net
the crowd screams and cheers loudly
the cycle repeats

This is a piece that I came up with while thinking about the game of basketball. Basketball has been my favorite sport and activity for as long as I can remember.
