Play Ball
At the ballgame a man with his hair in a bun, Was watching the children, and his wee, tiny son, Who came up to bat with the game on the line, He looked to his coach, who gave him a sign. So he did as was told and held out the bat, Across old home plate it was level and...

Premium Member Trapped in the Ivy League
Kathy Boudin thought the U.S. beyond repair, She thought she saw the deep reality, and it was unfair. From SDS to the Weather Underground, She dived deep in Marxism, plain sense no longer found. A bomb went off, unintended, by chance, Meant to shatter lives at a soldier's dance. Kathy didn't learn from that gory scene, She fled intact, still in...

The Ivy League
Covered deep in Poison Ivy A rash that spreads and burns Its toxic mass left festering With younger minds to churn What used to be a noble cause Malingers in disease Whose vines grow wild to trap the dark … That once were climbed —to free (The New Room: December, 2023) ...

College-League Baseball Sonnet
Small stadium built in the late forties, minor-league once, but has been left behind, built with girders and backless, wooden seats, a local relic of an older time. The players look so young, barely can shave, the pitching is rough and some balls are dropped, a few have been drafted by big league names, one has promise, at ninety-four was clocked. Young kids...

It's not easy becoming a Legendary Major League Baseball pitcher. It never was and will never be. You get put through the wringer and hung out to dry.
