I cross my arms

like Max.

What is it you’re afraid of?

she asks.

I do so want to punch her14

because there is something about her

some poking, prying, pushy thing

that engulfs me

but I do not punch her

instead I say

I am not afraid.

I love to run

but I love to run by myself.

She studies me

disbelieving

a little scornful

as if I am hiding something

or lying to her

and then she smiles

a thin little smile

and says

You might enjoy being

part of a team.

And now I really want to slug her15

because I have heard this before

from other coaches

who think that if you don’t

want to be

part of a team
