Please, Don't Die Too (The Los Angeles Lakers)

I have been a fan of the Lakers most of my life

Five championships I have cheered for

Seven since I was born

Today we mourn the loss 

Of basketball's greatest owner

Its greatest doctor

In Los Angeles I should have drowned twice

In the same pool I record

A lesson torn

Is life about being the boss?

Or making that three in the corner?

We're all at a loss, fostered

The affluence spent on moral

On ensuring the happiness of others

Succumbs to competition

I am better than the others who want to win

The other is not me or better

This reign is infinite

I hope the team corals 

And acts as a team of brothers

The team's mission

Begins

And ends because of an unmeasured

Wit

Keep winning Lakers

Do not admire this slump

You cannot win all the years wanted

But you can always be most likely

Always thought to almost win

To control basketball

Those fakers

Who know that the Lakers trump

All that they have vaunted 

Must precisely 

Embrace their chagrin 

Their call

Dr. Buss created a franchise who may stumble

But never fall
