Baseball and Classicism

by Tom Clark

Every day I peruse the box scores for hours

Sometimes I wonder why I do it

Since I am not going to take a test on it

And no one is going to give me money

The pleasure’s something like that of codes

Of deciphering an ancient alphabet say

So as brightly to picturize Eurydice

In the Elysian Fields on her perfect day

The day she went 5 for 5 against Vic Raschi

I like how the lines and angels of the fence/bleachers are mimicked by the clouds - very nice composition!

Empty bleachers are sad. Nice capture.

Interesting shot.

I'm not sure why (only on first caffeine injection) but I like it. A still in time.
