Basketball Is Me!
By Kamal Abdelrahman
Dribble, dribble, bounce, bounce, and swish!
Dribble, dribble, bounce, bounce, and slam!
I come from the soggy streets to the shiny school.
I come from the nice North to the next NBA.
When there is a loose ball,
I’ll pounce on it like a puma.
If there is a brawl for the ball,
I’ll jump in that dog fight for that last meat
and I’ll come out with that last meat.
I have skills to place on display,
And you one-on-one with me, ooh beware.
I’ll throw down the ball like Shaq
And come down with the rim as a souvenir.
I will shoot like my life is on the line
And I will run as if my feet are on fire.
I will throw a pass as if I am shooting at
A teeny, weeny bulls-eye.
My ball-handling is swift
Like Ray Charles with his music.
My stealing skills are sneaky
Like a slithering snake.
My shooting is so graceful
Like an angel.
My dunking is unique
Like Pandora’s Box.
Give me the rock
And I’ll make magic like a magician.
It’s easy as 1, 2, 3
Because I know Basketball Is Me!
