Subtitled: The Sports Game I play With My Invisible Child.
Thick jacket on a warm day,
It is comfortable he would say,
Little boy playing mini
baseball.
Dusk
Still swinging away,
clap-
snap-
crackle –
pop-.
Hitting home runs in the dark,
between flashes of hazard strobes
from sidelined machines.
The light is eerie if you notice.
Fowl balls on red,
home runs on dark.
snap, krakle, pop.
The bats smack
reminds him
of a clap.
in an open auditorium.
endless variations,
on a slow mocking
celebration
of congratulations.
Endlessley sitting
on a field’s
corner.
Clap-
Clap-
Clap,
