KOBE
By David Steven Simon It wasn't so much who Kobe was. He was a stranger to virtually all of us I met him when he was 18 with a broken hand on the set of Sister, Sister He was hanging with Brandy and was Deeply shy But it wasn't so much who Kobe was It was what he represented My son Jake idolized him And all these years later He will continue to idolize him Forever Because it wasn't so much who Kobe was He was what we needed. What Derek Jeter was to New York Kobe was to Los Angeles. He was a hero at a time when we Had heroes Who worked overtime To be one His obsessive pursuit of perfection Was mythological Losing was unimaginable. Being ordinary was unacceptable. He moved like a jungle cat Mocking gravity Defying physics Seducing the impossible Beaming like a spectator At his endless bucket drains That Looked like the comet trails Of high tech smart bombs He was a virtuouso Who could find the mathematical equation Of the improvised court melody Like Monk On a smokey After midnight Paris Stage He was glam And slam And sneakers And threads And wattage That could be seen From Mars To the end He was a student Who knew That The success of Other people Was all the Tuition that He needed To attend the University of life He was a father Of daughters And was not a saint Yet He might have earned that Title had his Life continued Which no doubt In time would have Taught him that Arrogance is the Suit that self-assured men And mentors Shed Before they Explode with The beauty And wisdom of butterflies Kobe will not age He will not turn Gray Or hobbled He will be a forever stranger To his baby Who will not know him Any better than we will His wife will search for His scent And trace her fingers In the sculpted imprint of his Mournful Pillow. His legend will Make him Even more outsized And statuesque and immortal But that isn't who Kobe was He was a a son Who was exceptionally gifted And more than willing To thrill Us like everyday Was a holiday And tomorrow was Another parade.
