Slam Scholarship


Slam

The doors crash shut
The lights flicker of
The flesh escapes.

Slam

The tears roll down
The face turns red
The heat boils up.

Slam

The money is tight
The education is limited
The opportunities are endless.

Slam

The motivation is empowering
The determination is strong
The passion of a lifetime.
