They tell me that in the beginning God created a baseball game.
He bulldozed a pasture and made a diamond, set up the fence, baselines and backstop.
From the dust he picked the teams and set the rules of play.
Then he went up to the stands and took a seat from which to keep score
It seems to me to be a silly game.
So I sit in right field watching the action.
When it is my turn at bat, don't expect me to swing.
I won't run or take a walk, so call me out on strikes
I am too busy reading the testaments that are scribbled on the grass and inscribed on the tablets of dandelions.
