Part 2 in my four part poetry project for Friday Night Lights.
There is a town in Texas
A town with not much going for it
In which the residents know each other and everything that happens
Completely in a world of their own
But every Friday night this town comes together to celebrate something magical
High school football
It seemed as if football became the only lifeline holding the town together
Like the gas in a car or the pedals on a bike
Or maybe like batteries in a flashlight
It was something to keep this town in Texas going
So that they had something to take pride in
