(M)Alchemy

Simply and inscrutably,
in Charles' churning skull,
come Sunday morning,
a Little League ball-game
glibly reported as a
" glorious Orioles victory "
becomes a
" laborious glory-hole victory..."

the adults laugh
the kids furrow up brows quizzically;
the bought bagels are summarily sliced,
slathered with cream cheese thickly
and devoured while Chuck shrugs
and smirkily admits his quirks,
holds himself accountable for
his word-whirled brain and how it works.
