Who's On First
i was next
in line
when
the ump
yelled
batter
up
i walked
hungry
to the
plate but
saw that
she was
out
on the pitcher's
mound spitting
in her hand
i took my stance
as she threw
the first
kiss
it was a curve
ball but i didn't
swing but heard
strike one and then
came the next
and then a
kiss
after this and then
not swinging it
was ball two
and then three
then four then
i knew she
let me
walk but i didn't
want to go
to first
base so went
to her mound
where she
threw me
a fast kiss
i winked
thinking
the thought
that bases
loaded
but
then Casey
hit the
ball
