the swing begins
long before
the club moves

Which is unfortunate for those
hoping to fix it midair

So hip hinge properly—
Shoulder glide to the center and down
Bend from the hips
Slight knee flex

remember,
your body organizes itself
to whatever posture it is given

However unfortunate

Slouch, reach, or stand too tall—
And your swing will adapt in ways
You didn’t intend

And yes,
Alignment is the quiet conspiracy
Behind most disasters
(Read: Align properly … please)
