They were losing so nobody spoke
No schmoozing, no boasting, no joke
.   From the bench not a mention
.   Just a clenching from tension
No boos heard in Boston, just “Choke!”

Beantown Bust
Boston asking How?
How this historic collapse?
Its team imploded
Last Spring’s favorite
Now AL’s foggy cypher
No Beantown party
In Boston, Haiku are a rueful boo hoo
The Red Sox have bled out and now they’re just blue
The fans left the stands with their heads in their hands
All Beantown is steeped in a cold Irish stew
