“Basketball Rule #1

In this game of life
your family is the court
and the ball is your heart.
No matter how good you are,
no matter how down you get,
always leave
your heart
on the court.”

“Basketball Rule #4

If you miss
enough of life's
free throws
you will pay
in the end.”
― Kwame Alexander, The Crossover
