SUMO WRESTLING ON SCREEN

 

 

An old Irish bar

with Sumo wrestling on tube

watching burly Japanese men

in their version of a thong

holds limited appeal

but I guess it’s more exciting

than baseball or curling

An Irish lass singing

“As Time Goes By”

on the sound system

but I’m not moved to weep

and the glass is approaching empty

soon we must move on

a bright sun outside intimidates

but vampiric impulses

must be overcome

 

There is much to be done

and many places to visit
