Joe Grieco

Only Nine At Eaton Canyon


Single today

Only playing nine today

My legs won’t carry me 

The full eighteen today

There’s no gallery today

No drunkies yell out the jinx

“In the hole!”

There’s just this spoonful of sunlight today

There’s just this pining

To get back

To things that comfort me today

There’s just this scent

Of mowed down grass today
