Seventy-nine:

79

In the deep cold

of winter

I lay awake in the night

and wonder:

Will I live to see another 

Baseball season?

What does a tittle do?

Can you die from a 

sudden and severe 

attack of joy?

What must I do to

live my remainders without 

the intrusion of the world?

Is this too much to ask?
