This poem originally appeared in the 2014 edition of Expressions, the John A. Logan College creative writing journal.
The first frontal assault
interrupted an Indians game
in the bottom of the seventh inning
And in the chaotic retreat down
Rockefeller Blvd.
Alexander's three favorite muses
fell
When Alexander ordered
a second attack
his men mutineed
and went to Larry Doby's bar
to drink ouzo
Later they went
to the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame
to see
T-Bone Walker's guitar
