A little brother with... was constant annoyance for sports— with basketball and with baseball stick. But it's time to pick my jersey number, a voice in my head said: Sick! Pressure's on, nothing clicks, and plays with brother dreamed. There... What number to be a shooting guard, a defensive player? And to care — all mixed. How to score heavy? What will make the opponent quit. Thank you for reading! Which part of the poem resonates with you? Share your thoughts. Please leave a comment. Copyright 2025 K.A. Smith
