patter, pitter,
well, but bitter,
deep in throwing 
a no-hitter,
love the heat,
but hate the splitter,
quitting time,
but none’s a quitter

little good happens in
American courts,
little good happens
in American courts

sibylline
on triviata,
sails set on 
the day’s regatta,
got some hate,
but not a lotta,
travesties 
become errata 

little good happens in
American courts,
little good happens
in American courts,
of course things seem
out of sorts:
little good happens
in American courts
