CHI 111 MIA 129
Kobe doesn’t see his defender
Once he starts his motion.
Just the rim.
He is
Alone
In the gym.
Always alone.
Hit the spot--
Take the shot.
Like he’s done
A million times before.
Repetition.
A musician
Running scales.
Automotion.
To love the moment
Of preparation
More than the performance.
Art
As process--
Not product.
The score
A reflection of the game--
And everything else, too
Once he starts his motion.
Just the rim.
He is
Alone
In the gym.
Always alone.
Hit the spot--
Take the shot.
Like he’s done
A million times before.
Repetition.
A musician
Running scales.
Automotion.
To love the moment
Of preparation
More than the performance.
Art
As process--
Not product.
The score
A reflection of the game--
And everything else, too
