“Overthinking” by Ashley Rosario

Story of Snooker/ Tale of a Tortoise/ Green Ball in the Side Pocket/ How Snooker Got His Name

Once there was a man who left his tortoise on a snooker table As he looked away his tortoise thought it was a ball When he looked back around his tortoise was nowhere to be found He looked left and right but still the tiny green tortoise was nowhere in sight

Green ball in the side pocket A beaming face peeking out of it Little arms and legs sticking out sideways And he didn’t know what to call it

Green ball in the side pocket A beaming face peeking out of it Little arms and legs sticking out sideways And that’s how Snooker got his name That’s how Snooker got his name.
