BaseballA Poem by Ben CampbellMy thoughts about baseball.........Baseball is simple. You hit a ball with a stick. And run. Then some people with one giant hand Try to catch the ball. I don’t know why they want it So badly. But if the ball is dirty, If it landed on the ground. They don’t want it! And they throw it to someone else! The only one who wants it then, Is the guy in the middle. But he only wants it To throw it at Another guy with a stick. But if the guy with the stick Doesn’t hit the ball, Another guy with a giant hand Catches it And throws it back to the guy in the middle! Over and over and over again. It’s like they’re not communicating well. “You take it!” “No you take it!” If the guy with the stick Lets them do this too long. An escaped convict throws them out. And someone else Takes the stick. And tries again. Baseball is complicated.
