a tumblr full of rocks
a pour of ichiro malt
and a stir
gan bei
and
ichi
to the yamazaki and nikkas
i am in the land of the sun
i go down to the land of the dead
mei hi ko
anejo
casa amigo,
to my brothers in arms
jose, i must have my agave
cheers to the alamo
to the land of the prohibition
kentucky
yippee kay yay
bourbon,
spicy rye kick
spur to the horse
giddy up, giddy up
riding off into the sun
set to kentucky
derby
bourbon
ballentines
tom ford west
make your mark
with maker’s mark
bottoms up
and now i am staggering
vichi patia
better than grey goose
aunt jiin
and all the cult gin
navy strength and **** juice
getting rowdy
like irish bloke jameson
and that **** scot
macallan
and his gang
oiban, glenfiddich, and
glenlivet
I am livid
at that *******
son of peat
another round
i am monkeying around
monkey 47
sun set
sun rise
*** on the beach
i see kings and queens
louis thirteen
i am going to sleep
pappy van winkle
100 years
like rip van winkle
don’t wake me
stir and not shaken
good night, mama
sweet havana

a shot of don papa
i go to sleep
this is my ode to drinking

Just made a rookie mistake
And a bit of a big one at that

Please for another chance
To step up to the bat.

No need to fear the intellectuals
It's such an ugly word

Ichiro Suzuki
On second stealing third

Harvard and Chicago
I don't think they heard

Socrates doesn't know
Knowledge is Absurd

       I'm a theonerd.
Qualyxian Quest Apr 2021
I can set aside the religiosity
I live ordinary days

Taco trunk for lunch
Basketball I plays

Family separation
Memories of Xie Xies

Ichiro Suzuki
Long after Willie Mays

I'm a Bored Panda
I hope my music stays

           50 Ways.

Ichiro Suzuki
Bert "be home" Byleven

Reading Mr. Clarke
(Kevin)

Amos 3:7

Blowin' in the wind
Then 9:37

Long ago in Florida
My basketball friend Kevin

Watch with her favorite movies
'Twould be very heaven

Ichiro Suzuki
Bert "be home" Blyleven

             Play ball!

So much drama in my mind
But so much boredom in my days

The Wind Cries Mary
Purple Rain and Purple Haze

Ichiro Suzuki
Born too late for Willie Mays

But born at just the right time
For Taiwanese xie xies.
Qualyxian Quest May 2021
I'm up all night again
Not paranoid but lonely

Joan of Arc's death
She's a one and only

I have been to France
Honeymoon in Paris

I saw Ichiro
Never Roger Maris

I got Post Office blues
Does anybody hear me?

I probably wouldn't write
If she was actually near me

I am an aging fool
But I keep on tryin'

I like rhyming couplets
You see I am not lyin'

             4:56 a.m.
Qualyxian Quest Jul 2021
Am I creating worlds then leaving?
No, planting mustard seeds.
Or maybe stealing bases
Watch me get my lead

Rickey Henderson
Seattle's Ichiro
Bert "be home" Blyleven
I'm a Pirate: gotta go

             Yo ** **!
Qualyxian Quest Apr 2020
Please for clearer vision
But not perfect
Too much must be ignored

The clarity is a gift
So community is restored

Basketball is my favorite sport
But I like baseball too

Ricky Henderson still the man
And Ichiro got through

I played center field and pitched
Mark the all-star view

I'd like to see the game again
Runners returning who

Some thought had just struck out
(But David Markson somehow
                        knew)
