Joseph Buehler

Throwing The Baseball

Throwing the baseball at the target above the dunk tank
so that you can plunge the insulting clown into the water
isn’t exactly like fresh bread
nor stale bread for that matter.

Once jelly beans were popular.

The Quang Tran Province
of Luxemburg
is full of subway trains
and half baked donuts.

The Philadelphia Orchestra
in Philadelphia
is made up of men and women
and one disconsolate monkey.

All babies cry in the same language.



Joseph Buehler has published poems in the USA, the UK, Canada and Ireland. Recent poems have appeared or are forthcoming in North Dakota Quarterly, Angry Old Man Magazine, in the Adelaide Literary Award Anthology, and in Common Ground Review.
