When using vivid word you are using over-sized words that bring up feelings. They are also very descriptive and make people look sophisticated when they really aren’t. For example, (L. 3) the poet uses the word “gangly” to describe the player jumping for the ball. Instead of saying the player was tall and thin, Mr. Hirsch used the word gangly because the descriptive vocabulary makes him look intelligent. In conclusion, Mr. Edward Hirsch uses hyperboles and vivid language in “Fast Break”. He shows his love for the game and expresses how he feels when they throw the ball away at the last
