You strike and score again and again
You're the best,
The Greatest,
One of a kind
You tackle your opponents like a bowling ball to pins
They fall like a hunter's prey
While you continue to race away like Dale Jr. at Daytona
You shoot again, but miss and fall to the ground, as if you'd been shot
You wonder if you'll ever be that good again
You persevere and try again like a writer does writer's block
Will you win? Will you succeed?
I did!
