Brian Swinehart

Local favorite Brian Swinehart 
Covington, Ohio's kind heart 
does comedy at a cozy coffee shop 
with Philippine food in the backdrop

The barista pours out the coffee 
her daughter sits out the toffee 
as Brian don's a smile 
bringing people in for miles

His latest guest (Nicholas De Santo)
an Italian on a quest 
from London he came 
hoping we can remember his name


+Brian is a friend of mine that does comedy and I do the poetry every third Saturday of the month at our favorite coffee shop North Star coffee station in Piqua, Ohio. He is a traveling comedian that has lived in California and was a backup actor.
