A Poem by 外人 (Gaijin)

Opinions and answers are welcome :)

"
I'm no bigger than your fist,
I fly from side to side with no direction,
my insane journey is not my intention,
they hit me, and force me, and i can't do otherwise,
every drop of sweat makes my hopes of stopping arise
but my cruel enemies won't give me up that easily,
with their scaring weapons they will hit me badly,
because of them i cry in sorrow,
they make me afraid of not coming to tomorrow,
my pain, hiding with savage roars they try,
not a single tear i see in their eye,
such an endless time i spend in that net-split field
untill the final score is revealed,
'till the next game i'm free to rest,
guess my name and pass my test !

Good description in the poem. I believe a tennis ball. Side to side. Could be a soccer ball? Thank you for sharing your entertaining poetry and thoughts.

Wow, a very interesting perspective on the way a tennis ball may feel. Nice personification. I was originatly baseball until you said a net-split feild. You stuck to a rhyme scheme as well adding flair to the riddle. Nice job
