Ah those Martians, can’t find them
because they are underground
at Mons Mons Stadium watching
a baseball game: two steps to first
eight to circle the bases, hit the ball
six or eight hundred feet, throw it back
about the same, need some extra fielders
even their four arms are not enough and
fans cheer with four hands clapping, two
mouths yelling and some double loud
mouthed kid is chowing down on a matched
pair of hot dogs
THE POETRY OF THE GAME
