Classic rock 
Played so softly
Zooming
Grooving

Got it playing
So quietly 
Though it’s kind
Of metal 
Rocking

But It brings back
Cool memories

But even those
There so funny 
Always selling insurance
And always pushing
Warranties

Offering tidbits
About John...

"Take me out to the ball game"
that anthem of great fame,
one lyric is clearly off track-
"I don't care if I ever get back".

It's the only game after all,
where the defense controls the ball.
It's so unique,...

Strangers giving each other
a motoring, inquisitive eye
Jotting down digital information
as they recklessly pass by
Inhibitions are placed under
chemical arrest
Club Le Box is playing jailhouse music,
making sweaty bodies confess
Weekend pheromone prisoners
with their feet handcuffed to the dance...

There was a ballplayer named "Ron",
I would always run home to watch him on television.

He batted fourth and played the third base spot,
That's the corner they always called "Hot".

As a power hitter and great fielder...

Baseball and beer 
and a beautiful woman
Tonight, such a 
wonderful date

Two teams are playing,
while one love we're sharing,
who cares who is up

I went to my mans place.
I was suffering from the Mondays and needed his embrace.
We dated for two months and haven’t even made it to third base.

And he just kept stalling.

Tiny heartbeats in the dark
With a glowing hope inside
To shine brighter than the stars

But their possibilities.....
Suddenly come to an end
Echoing in their silent screams
All they could have been

I see a doctor,...

Are memories and family names
Of girls you loved; the guys; your friends

The houses grew smaller
The neighbor kids taller
And parents of friends have all...

Ballistic
Missives

And we weren’t calculating batting averages
And I says to  her baby you’re my home run
I’ve always dreamed about.
