the last of the subway series
going into the eighth
anything could happen
for you see
the fat lady has yet to sing
yogi nods to casey
who pulls the starter
& that’s when it all starts
to unravel
the say-hey kid
dancing around second
in the right field bleachers
all the fans boisterously sing
ninety-nine bottles
of beer on the wall
of course it all comes
crashing down
when mister coffee bounces
into a double entendre
thereby passing the torch
onto number seven himself
june two thousand twenty-one
