Classic and Contemporary Poetry
COMPANY, by BERTON BRALEY Poet's Biography First Line: I'm in a fair way to go mad Last Line: Just putter there! Subject(s): Golf; Sports | |||
I'm in a fair way to go mad For round about me golfers shriek, And I can't understand, I'll add, The golfing cleek. My eyes get brassie when they broach That subject, each one of the clan Just seems to me, on his approach, A bogie man. I cannot foursome to be still For they are under such a thrall That, lacking audience, they will Address the ball. What's that? You say you're weary too Of all this golfiac hot air? Comrade in pain, I welcome you Just putter there! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPORT STORY OF A WINNER by GLYN MAXWELL WOMAN SKATING by MARGARET ATWOOD FISHING IN WINTER by RALPH BURNS CAPPER KAPLINSKI AT THE NORTH SIDE CUE CLUB by HAYDEN CARRUTH JACKIE ROBINSON by LUCILLE CLIFTON FOR THE DEATH OF VINCE LOMBARDI by JAMES DICKEY THE DEATH OF THE RACE CAR DRIVER by NORMAN DUBIE |
