A Beautiful Game
He runs so graceful
swift
elegant
that the world around him…
seems to stand still
the ball moves at his feet
as if it was an extension…
of his agile body
He cuts, turns, swivels left to right
effortlessly passing each unworthy foe
Adjusting his vision upon the goal
his leg shifts back
then springs forward
with surprising force
suddenly mass pressure mounts
upon his fragile frame
His figure is compacted
into the black and white
sphere that smoothly
soars into the depths of the white net
