HELEN AT THE BAT
The outlook wasn’t hopeful for the young Greek girl that day.
She’d never tried “The Softball,” but the team still let her play.
So, to the field ran Helen, not expecting much at all.
When WHACK! Some dude sent Helen one real bad-ass line drive ball!
The teammates gasped. The crowd sat still. And everything slowed down.
Just like that scene in movies where, um, everything slows down.
The ball flew right towards Helen and her eyes sprang open wide.
What if she missed? What if she sucked? Should I take off and hide?
Her left gloved hand stretched clear across her curvy, ample chest.
That pink-striped new black leather mitt would be put to the test.
She turned her gloved hand clockwise; her arm was all contorted.
“She may have even closed both eyes and cowered,” some reported.
But speculate all day and night, the truth’s another story.
For Awesome held the field that day and Helen earned the glory.
With twisted arm and obscured view, this Greek girl wowed them all.
The NoDa team erupted – mighty Helen caught the ball.
