2008: From 2001 - Just Enough To Win Poem by Tom J. Mariani
2008: From 2001 - Just Enough To Win
No wasted energy here
You have to watch closely
Before you realize that older
And gray to playing way
Below his level
For him
It's a rather light half-court workout
Winner's outs lots of youth
He's mediator coach and
Outside go-to guy
He doesn't bang much
In the middle anymore
He's just where he needs to be
When he needs to be
Slightly above inside and
A step ahead
