No peanut vendors calling
out.
No warbly rendition of the
national anthem.
No expletives hurled at the
other team’s fans.
No boos at the umpire's call.
No cheers for the single from
the new kid.
No gasp at the fast ball too
close to the batter's helmet.
No 7th inning stretch with
"Take Me Out to the Ball Game."
No applause for the pitcher
exiting with a shutout.
No sounds at all
except maybe
the cries of anger and
despair
from the streets of the city.
