Yesterday was a tough day
A Headache day
a Klutzy day
a delete an important email day
a delete a poem I hadn't saved day
a brain fog on migraine meds kind of day
a trumble down a few stairs kind of day
a missed Orchestra kind of day
but Today will be a better day
Starting off with determination for a fresh, new day!
breek n brare
along a carpeted hall
bax n goolin oft is a ghoul
betrackeding down a creakeding stair
trumble n frumble n deatheding fall
Without a standard argument
What are we ?
To juggle truth from lies
Remember your smooth sojourn
to Bath
The needless woe
of incensed rage
trumble the Lilies
cheer the Oxford boaters
oh to be English
while the guest speaker speaks
STANLEY
like in Mickey Stanley.
DEEtroit. Tigassszzz.
No.24
A solid kid.
Played center
like he OWNED it.
Decent arm
Stanley to Freehan
for the OUT AT THE PLATE at the plate.
YES SIR
that kid could run the bases.
He could ROUND them bases as well.
A decent number of home runs
back then
TiiiGer. Stadium.... was average size park
untill the nineties.
Too Big. Too Old.
440 ft STRAIGHT away
385 in the gaps.
A lot of lawn to COVER $.50 Bleachers ticket holders
to share his time with.
Often teasing them with a potential home run ball.
Trumble and Kaline Dr.
Home to OUR Stanley.
