COMPANY by BERTON BRALEY

First Line: I'M IN A FAIR WAY TO GO MAD
Last Line: JUST PUTTER THERE!
Subject(s): GOLF; SPORTS;
I'm in a fair way to go mad
For round about me golfers shriek,
And I can't understand, I'll add,
The golfing cleek.

My eyes get brassie when they broach
That subject, each one of the clan
Just seems to me, on his approach,
A bogie man.

I cannot foursome to be still
For they are under such a thrall
That, lacking audience, they will
Address the ball.

What's that? You say you're weary too
Of all this golfiac hot air?
Comrade in pain, I welcome you
Just putter there!
