Silk and Vines

silk and vines mold into his frame
flirt with skin and pointy elbows,
scratch ankles, tangle laces

look him in the eyes, tired wrinkles, gloss
his bare shoulder shows
a tattoo on young, stretchy canvas
touch it and it would bounce back

soft and patient sleep

his eyelids droop
while delicate traces of our Mother
recollect him

-Catherine Buckley

For those who love both fighting games and sports, head basketball perfectly combines the two, delivering high-energy gameplay where you can attack, defend, and score while also laughing at the ridiculous characters and crazy skills that transform simple basketball matches into epic, unforgettable duels packed with surprises.
