I'm Angry



My favorite basketball team has lost
It enraged myself and my mental state
I want my team to win despite the cost
Passion and heart is what they need not hate

Frustration surrounding from referees
Calling questionable blocking fouls
Whistles blowing, officials calling cheese
 At least we can still beat the Maine owls

Men in black and white stripes making the bank
Cash being tossed by the basketball teams
Paying them like a mischievous prank
Hope, hopefully coming near in my dreams

Ending of the season has come around
Maybe next year we will be playoff bound
