Do stars have red stitches

and a cork

center ball?

Wound with spun wool

sheared off in the fall?

And bound in white leather

to hold in it all?


Do stars fly when wound tighter?
Unravel in clumps?
Peel like the lemons
we used to sew up?


Do old stars of yore

of cotton spun thread

drop when you hit 'em

y' know, 'cause they're dead?



Do stars spin in the sky

to ball or to strike

the bean of the batter

or plank over the wall?


Do stars have red stitches?

Do any?

Do all?


Do stars have red stitches

and a cork

center ball?






Do stars have red stitches?
