The Bossy Fan

The Bossy Fan
By Larry Linville

The count is three and two.
The home team needs an out.
With anticipation
the fans begin to shout.

Some fan on the seventh row
stands up and waves his hands
to get people rising
throughout all the stands.

Why’s he think the he’s in charge?
He doesn’t look that smart.
Does he think he’s an actor
that has to play this part?

Or does he think the other fans
aren’t very smart at all
and need his expertise
to understand baseball.
