i've recently written a poem about bill buckner the ballplayer whom supposidly blew the WS, i did'nt think so though! um, in which the poem can be viewed on poetry.com under my self titled name 'paul ford green'what drew me towards writing this poem was when, on one night 8pm on HBO i was watching "the curse of the bambino" narr. by mass. own Ben Afflack and during the show it brought up the '86. WS and well, by the end of the doc. i was wondering what ever happened to bill buckner? i would soon find out! i than was changing the channels and i suddenly came across the local sports network and there it was. a "behind the glory" episode of bill buckner. i was just so amazed. i thought it would take me forever to find out about him. god was working magic that night. and than a thought came to me (that night) what if Bill Buckner have wriiten a poem about the monment that would forever memoirs his life. i than went to poetry.com, where i'm kinda involved in, writing poems and all, and typed in his name. there it was. the poem that perscribes it all. "Untitled" by Bill Buckner. and that night i than thought i had to write about that current situation and the after life it brought thru my eyes of "feeling your pain 'Bill Buckner'" i hope you enjoy!
may sincere,
paul for'd green.
ps. thank you Bill Buckner for being such a Inspiration on my life and being an asset towards Major League Baseball.
if it was'nt for you, i've wouldn't have written this.
pss. I liked the poem!;)
