As part of a school literacy/extra credit program, jch25 wrote some "five senses" poems. This is tonight's poem.
Baseball is red and white
It tastes like a hot dog
It sounds like the crowd cheering
It smells like food baking at the food stands
It looks like a player running around the bases
It makes me feel excited
Testify, son. Testify.
P.S. The whole "FanPosts have to be 75 words long" rule sucks.

I think this is one bodacious poem!

bardball rocks
They even published one for us back in ’07, back when the Reds had Bullpen issues
"I cannot get rid of the hurt from losing, but after the last out of every loss, I must accept that there will be a tomorrow. In fact, it's more than there'll be a tomorrow, it's that I want there to be a tomorrow. That's the big difference, I want tomorrow to come." - George "Sparky" Anderson
They published my Clinchmas poem too!
Love that place.
"Red Reporter - An elitist clique full of like-minded douchebags." - BK
And my Adam Dunn sonnet.
I’m not sure they get inundated with submissions.

lol
someone else got one published also but I don’t remember who

I wonder if they would publish my novel.
Either that or my Great Christmas Bird poem.

so, sonnets are fanposts, but haikus have to be fanshots?
That’s racist.
By the way, nice poem, jch25. Maybe you’ll redeem the family reputation. :)

An ode to jch25
RR is mostly white
It tastes like crow
It sounds like voices from the other side of reason
It smells like a rhinoceros in heat
It looks like the menu at Squatman’s
It makes me feel aroused
I have been inspired by jch25…his genius is in telling it like it is with no intellectual interference…He makes me want to be a better poet.

My RR tastes like Old Crow

looking like the menu @ Squatman's cannot be a good thing
and what does a rhino in heat smell like?

She has nice feet.
I remember noticing that in the “soak up the sun” video.
I’m not one of those feet people… But, I do have a problem with ugly feet.
WYSIWIG
At least I know you won't be hitting on me any time soon
My feet ain’t got no alibi.

That's because she's almost 30 years older than you Crolfs
She’s a pretty decent bass player.

Her songs strike me as really pretentious.
Like she’s trying to show off some kind of amazing intellect but coming up short.
"People don't kill people. Burning oreo packages kill people."
Good Lord Crolfs, she is pretentious...
She a fucking rock star. And her intellect is has been stunted by living in California and hanging around with people like Bruce Hornsby.
Back before she headed to California she was a lot less a Suburban California Girl

In fact, she went to the University of Missouri-Columbia.
Ahem.
