Self-Interested Ball Play
Do you enjoy selfishness in sports?
A direct pass to
A teammate that then
Allows for a score
By field goal is a
Beautiful thing. It
Requires the skill
And prowess of the
Perceptive athlete.
Far from selflessness,
This kind of ballplay
Is egoistic.
It is like a true
Capitalist who
Trades with a startup
And reaps the pleasure
Of doing good work.
To assist players
On one’s own team is
The model of true
Selfishness. To not
Pass the ball when a
Teammate is open,
And you take a wild
Shot that is blocked or
Bricks or draws air or
Is stripped is such an
Unselfish and dense
Act that you can show.
Self-interested
Ball play allows the
Team to not worry
About statistics
But about hoisting
That championship
Trophy up in the
Name of sportsmanship.

Smartystan
The gleam from the streets of Smartystan sparked the brain. Platinum and diamond streets always seemed to drive thought in the city-state-nation. It meant that vehicles could rove over the avenues and boulevards with ease and become not a distraction but a reminder of how clean and well-kept even the alleyways and back lots had been.
