Kids acting tough, I thought
when they sat down at the next table,
ordered their beers and lit up their smokes.
Then I noticed their shirts.
Pittsburgh boys on leave,
vowing to "represent" Pirate fandom
in Afghanistan.
All honor to these brothers of the 47%
who will pay no income tax this year,
and who deserve much more
than that to which they are entitled.
