Each June, ball teams celebrate
Their fanbase’s diversity
It’s just marketing, sure,
But also visibility
All teams, that is, save the Rangers
Who’ve never held a Pride night
Dallas likes to keep things orderly,
Straight and oh-so white
I once thought things were big in Texas
That cliche’s an inanity
Big hats, big boots, big tits and hair
But a puny view of humanity.
