More alleged "poetry"

I posted a link to today's print column on my personal Facebook page, and an old college friend (at my age, college friends are automatically old) commented:

I enjoyed your rhyme
About the sport sublime

But I think you left out "cavort"

To which I responded:

It's the second time
I've done this kind of rhyme
And the first time I also used "port"

It's been 19 years --
a lot of brats and beers
Since I last did a piece of this sort

Leaving out such a rhyme
Be it twice or one time
Won't get me charged with a tort

And if everybody's lucky, we'll just leave it at that.
