Note From An Aging Met Fan

All the horrors in the news
Rip into my soul 
So I switch on the game 
The Mets are playing the Nationals
Losing at the moment 
When I was a kid 
I cried when they lost
I cried a lot! 
They used to be terrible 
I watch the electric warriors 
battle on the screen 
7th inning almost over 
60 years old 
I am in the 7th inning of my life
After  finishing this poem
I will watch the rest of the game
