The Shoebox - Day 4

Bill Campbell

P - Tigers
#362, O-Pee-Chee, 1987

Eat innings and you'll get
fat. Never mind
the columnist who see the grind
and eye you as an idle pet

hyena, not a graceful hawk.
Like the future was a carcass
every star could kill but you. Alas,
you came to deal, not talk

so let's be brief:
The poor tire of bills and Campbell's
but some will face the heart of hell's
lineup before they ask relief.
