To the Stars Who Listen

To the Stars Who Listen

A Poem by NelliKong

The stars listen tome from above… they catch me like a foul ball in their well designed baseball glove… the stars never wanted me to go so far out of left field… wanting me to get that home-run… but baseball is a mind game that’s impossible to outrun.


The stars listen like a great football coach… the stars guide me on the field and tell me which role to take. Sometimes I’m the quarterback, other times the wide receiver and even the tight end. The goal is to make a touchdown and receive those winning points… but sometimes in order to get the win you have to make a different choice. Sometimes flags will be thrown on the play or trying to convert a fourth into a first down, you’re trying to understand how to solve this mission… but sometimes the coach subs you out and has you play a different position.
