       forget forever and fifty
                  never tap pen on pad
               a coach can't ketch coal
               cajole  weep  fence fierce  foal
     leftie,  rightie,  watch
                            watch
                                  the
                               shoulder
                             cheat skate
                                 the black
                                  list
                                  check
                                           books, his shelves, a Russian knows Merlot
                                                                                     floats planes
                                                                                      or gold solo notes
it's his science, his globe, the flakes  shake
                                                   under glass
                        your 82-game     dustbin
                 the moments  motes  more heavy  than  the  atomics  of  discipline
                                      the  putrid  paper power  of       season ticket
                                              cancellation letters
                                                  even wins
                                                    even team
                                                       the  titan  tension
                                                        a collision ,  a  force
                                            the whippet steel
                                          the  fragile     boarse
            this winger     found
                           no captain
