I'm Still Waiting It Out...

What more do I have to do? I mean, I've been standing here, football in hand, for what? Four or five days now?

I've asked practically everyone in my neighborhood to toss a few with me. But nooooo. This is what I hear:

Too busy O-dawg. Gotta run O-man. Catch you tomorrow O-wie. I don't know. Maybe I throw the football too hard or something? It doesn't matter...

I'll wait as long as it takes.

I'm all about persistence, you know.

Little Man,

When you make it big in the Professional Football League, then everyone will stop and want to throw the football with you. But remember:

Sitting in the morning sun
I'll be sitting when the evening comes
Watching cars ride by on Allen Road
And no one stopping to play with me.

Sitting in the driveway
Waiting for my Grand Neighbors and Godfather to come home
Wasting time waiting for them.

I left my home on Allen Road
and headed for Park Avenue
Cause I had no one to play with
Hoping that Ray J will have the time to hang with me.

Look like nothing's gonna change
Everything still remains the same
So I guess that I'll just wait.

Miss and Love Ya to pieces,

Zia:

So inspirational, so very inspirational :)

Here's what I'm thinking, Zia:

Where's my family?
I got my new football with me...
Where's my family?
Why aren't they hearing my plea???

Ev'ryone can see I'm athletic
As I strut on by...
(Strut!) and my looks are so good They're cosmetic
I'm a handsome small fry...

(ALL!) all of the people around me they say
O-man throws a football just fine
Just let me state for the record
I can handle any goal line...

Heeheehee.

xxxooo

I don't know what's wrong with those people. I would L-O-V-E LOVE to play catch with you. Jump on your rocket, bring your football and make your way to Brooklyn. I have this beautiful/large park by my house that we could play at ALL day. Prospect Park is the most peaceful part of Brooklyn and it's only a hop, skip and a jump away from me.

Let's do it, okay?
You, me and the football.

Just go easy on me...

Hi Owen next time I see you I'll play catch with you I PROMISE (I probley wont even be able to catch the ball when you throw it to me but I'll try my best)

P.S. Im not good at sports and catching things.

[Owen K. Says To AuntieLeeeeeeee:]

AuntieLeeeeeeee: I like Prospect Park already. If I zoom out there, will you take me to a deli too, Auntie? Those crazy kids don't feed me either. Okay, not really, but it makes for a good story...

I hope I see you and Ray J soon. I need a fun fix :)

[Owen K. Says To Aunt Brooke:]

Aunt Brooke: Who cares if we can catch the ball or not? Also, did I tell you how I like to get sprayed by the hose now? Bring your swimsuit when you come up to see me -it'll be fun. We'll play aqua football. Then if we drop the ball we can just blame it on the water.

I'm smart :)
