POEM: For the Win

This week's Miss Rumphius Effect poetry stretch is to compose a poem using only three-letter words. Just for fun, my poem has three words in each line of each three-line stanza. Like basketball, tougher to play than it looks:


For the Win
By Steven Withrow


Yes—you nab
the tip off—
rob the orb

jag and zag
top key hop
lob for two—

out too low—
ram the rim
oop and jam

bam!—all air—
not but net
mad sun god
