Drama Coach

This poem will make little sense if you don't know some drama and some football terms.  (I hope it makes more sense if you do.)

                       Drama Coach

                                           (if directors could yell during a play like football coaches during a game)

            “Hit that line. Hit that line!

            That’s it. That’s it.

            Now follow the blocking.

            Follow it. Then get open.

            Stay open. Get open.

            Stay open. Counter-cross.

            Counter-cross.  No! No! No!

            Too many men in motion.

             Now you’re unbalanced

             right. We need some

            role players now!

            Know your position!

            Play your position!

            No movie stars here.

            And whatever you do

            stick to the play, damn it.

            stick to the play!”
