What Is Football by Dejuan Belnavis
This is an ode to the football field. The smell is fresh air and sweat. The ground is hard and either real or just astroturf. This is an ode to football, the screaming and cheering for both teams. The wind blowing in my face when I’m going full speed and I’m sweating. This is an ode to the football field, the friends I had to play with Leroy, Josiah, Brandon, Miah, and liam. The team I played with to win every game. This is an ode to the football field, the red painted benches who had paint chips on it. The moms that shout the lungs out when their baby boy is about to win a game. The colored uniforms we wore before the game. This is an ode to the football field. What I learned from football is even when you play alone it is cool. When you play as a team you will go even further.
