It's screams and dreams
as it soars through the air
The crowd stops
staring
hoping
waiting.
A sphere of win or loss,
it meets the soft white fibers
woven together to become the factor
the two clash together
to create a swish
that makes a sound
that jerks a heart
and goes to the mouth
to create a sound
that joins with others
to create the motivation
that is within the one
who threw the sphere
of win or loss.
Then someone speaks,
"We won."
