"Paddy"

When you wake to mountain breeze

Flowing through the cabin

You know you live a life of ease

   (up from paddy wagon).

"Trick"

When you score on a long-throw goal

What will be your next sweet trick?

These guys who came all the way from Seoul

Might destroy your aesthetic.

"Frayed"

When you drive a Renault Dauphine

And you think you've got it made

You're drinking too much caffeine

   (and you missed your true decade).

"Beater"

The downtown buzzer-beater

Surely wows the crowd

But the tapped-in missed-shot winner

Is easily as loud.
