Why The Famous? Poem by Tom Dixon
Why The Famous?
When Babe Ruth Hits
the game winning home run
the whole world loves him.
When Michael Jordan Shoots
the game winning shot
the whole world loves him.
When Tom Brady throws
the game winning touchdown
the whole world loves him.
But I bet you Lou Gehrig
could of hit the
game winning home run.
I bet you Scottie Pippen
could of shot the
game winning shot.
I bet you Jimmy Garoppolo
could of throw the
game winning touchdown.
But all of this stuff
happened because they had
OPPORTUNITY.
