I stood 
in the box and watched
lie after lie find everything
but where I want it
in front of me

I wait
My patience seen as weakness
is that of a cheetah 
I see that two seamer
losing some speed
drifting back over the zone
looking for a full count

Now

Barrel meet ball

The crack you
heard
and the look
I gave
is why
you should have
thrown at my head
