Red sun glints off his father's watch He is standing there with white tube socks and Nikes That he bought new Arms held upwards and both knees bent Hands are cradling leather meant for the net He leans forward slightly Tuesdays and Fridays Charlie goes to the park Drives straight from work and leaves when it gets dark He is forty-five and he knows that he could be a star He is working on getting his free throw up to par Children sit on the playground swings Staring and laughing as Charlie sings to himself That song she loved His mind is focused, he does not hear Their ridicule falls on deaf ears as he shoots And thinks of her Tuesdays and Fridays Charlie goes to the park Drives straight from work and leaves when it gets dark He is forty-five and he knows that he could be a star He is working on getting his free throw up to par Oh, and Charlie knows how it goes He lost his chance at the ninth grade dance With Sarah Green, he acted so mean But now he'll win her back when he shoots that three Tuesdays and Fridays Charlie goes to the park Drives straight from work and leaves when it gets dark He has nothing left but dreams of basketball stars And the memories of high school and Sarah's strong pale arms
