The above poem refers to a basketball player who, during the game, is reflecting on whether or not to steal a base. The tension of the game and the reflection makes the player tense, anxious and apprehensive. These sensations, as well as the scenario in which the poem is established, are made with the use of figurative language that is established with the use of similes, where the poet compares the player's situation with other elements. The use of figurative language through similes can be seen in the lines:
"Both ways taut like a tightrope-walker,

"Now bouncing tiptoe like a dropped ball

"Taunts them, hovers like an ecstatic bird,

Answer:
Last week when I was going to a field trip I overslept and I had to run to school. As I got closer to the schools entrance I tripped and I got to school limping. When the teachers saw me they took me to the nurse where I told her how I hurt myself and in response the nurse told me that I just sprained my ankle. After that we got on the bus and we left to the zoo. As we got to the zoo I decided to get some souvenirs and the price was high. A sweatshirt cost $40, a stuffed dolphin cost $65 and a miniature ice skate rink cost $50 so I decided to leave the store. I prefer to rely on my memories and save my money because I was planning to eat at the sushi buffet that was across the souvenir store.
