The Holy Land

Directly off of Granville St.,

Sunlight filtrates through the speckled backboards,

And the dull orange rims smile to show their gleaming

The Rock.

Shorts, Jordan?s, and T?s,

except for the rhythmic bouncing of the round deity.

The beings awaken and stand at attention,

as if called by the drill sergeant.

rotating as if attracted to its dearest friend.

That beautiful sound rings like a Martin Luther King speech,

throughout the black and white Holy Land.
