Fallible

Tied up , 11 seconds left
Free-throw missed
Other team rebounds, fouled, wins
Tennessee loses

Grown men cry
Strong black men
The season is over
National attention fades
NBA scouts change the channel

I could have made that
A FREE THROW
I don't want to make mistakes
NO MISTAKES
I want to win, everytime, at everything

I want the self-confidence
I am as fragile as peanut brittle
I think I should join the marines
6 weeks to self-confidence

A gun in my hand
An insignia on my arm
An enemy
And a victory

Let's go home

  1. Have I ever bullshitted you? I'm serious in my previous comment.
