same story with me
by Charlie Morganyour iPod held in one hand;
you feeling groovy, cool;
and just 50yrs ago, i had
that same groovy feeling
as i tossed a baseball
in the worn pocket of my mitt.
we both enamored with worldly objects
and pitching our cares into the wind;
i wanted a Louisville slugger, 30inch.
you await a mailordered Mossburg 500.
i wanted a home run; you want kids to run home. 08/24/2010 Posted on 08/24/2010

| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 08/26/10 at 02:30 AM I love the use of juxtaposition here Charlie. A strange combination in the last two lines, but I'm open minded enough to imagine the meaning. Excellent close off in that last line also. |
