Caught Off Base

The pitcher is always looking

By Pluto WolnosciPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

Never bat better than a single,

yet still think you're the M. V. P.

Her perfume on your ball cap

Do you think your quick glance

gives nothing away?

—silent, steal home—

so sneaky,

Umpire:

"Out!"
