in my cocktail of L.A.
A short jaunt from the curve of Stadium Way
It’s the time when the Dodgers
ask for my cardboard face
cut-out to witness
the ghost town team
At night the air is heavy
like a bubble of marine
The layer floats and traps
itself inside the ravine
But this Sunday afternoon
ideal conditions for the sip
warm weather
usually hot and dry
Today is humid with a modicum of breeze
Kiké I say as he steps up to the plate
He hits a 3 run homer
a 3 run shot
5-2 Dodgers
Artificial applause
