Munday on Monday: Dining distraction

A night out of dining with others,

So here at our table we are;

I’m keeping an eye on the TV,

The big screen that’s perched by the bar.

And mercy! Such action I’m missing!

Another home run by our team!

The third in just barely a minute —

It’s all I can do not to scream.

No sound with the TV? No problem!

Oh, why aren’t we cheering hoo-ray?

…But what I’d assumed was excitement

Was merely the instant replay.
