Red Sox Spoken Here

Enlarge to appreciate Yawkey Way


Another sellout at Fenway.

Another 40,000 speaking a common language,

Sweltering together in a Boston swamp

Civilized with sport and commerce,

Groaning in unison at certain failure,

Rejoicing at unexpected success,

Singing shoulder to shoulder

In praise of dirty water and home

Where the common dialect is baseball.
