Silly sports

What faulty wire
requires I prefer
ink and words to sport and games?
Some silly structure up top,
dictating rhymes and patterns
instead of thinking about the next game,
scoring a goal, or pointing my toes.
What pray tell,
brought this all about?
Out of 46 genes,
which one spoke up and said
libraries were better playgrounds?

I like this poem. Which wire is the faulty one? I kinda like the word/library gene myself!

And it's probably the red one.
