A Tough Place To Be

A tough place to be

Is the pitcher's mound
10 inches higher than home plate
wheel work hub
of an elongated arch of bases

A tough place to be

When fans cameras & commentators
descend centered on a dome of earth
on an arm & delivery
to a hub/to home plate

A tough place to be

When all works or doesn't
head & heart mind & body
focused this moment
a pitcher on the mound is

A tough place to be
