In Horseshoes and Hand Grenades (an Incomplete List of Things That Don't Count)

Books whose covers say “Patterson,” reviews say “gripping;”
Stumbles that are only lurches, no tripping;
Rains I can't hear, except for from the roof dripping;
Bands that don't play music, 'cause I can only stand the drumming;
Singers who don't sing with words, but only scat and humming,
and breakups that I saw because they took so long in coming.
