A Drinking Club with a Running Problem
Ithaca Hash #451
Finger Lakes National Forest
up the dirt road
a long road
to Finger Lakes Forest
hash all around
assembled
hares Floss and Liquor jest
hounds gather near
the flour
chalk talk of what we’ll see

and Beats It
Air Jesus, where’ve you been?

let’s not forget
Sevtana
and also Deja Goo
off after marks
on on yell
but trail is YBF
back to the start
those damn hares
are you? no, i’ll check left
finally trail
through thick woods
on path up hill, i hear
shiggy and thorn
hounds calling
but where the hell is beer
following trail
a long time
at last the beer is seen
slide on the grass
by water
drink beer by pond and stream
back down the trail
through forest
a porta potty found
check out the trail
around it
a back check for the hounds
who’s in the john
a hasher
a murkey moment, yey!
check over there
some campers
let’s go the other way
back to the pond
familiar
i think we’ve seen before
is this the trail?
we’ve gone on?
have we been on this shore?
head down a road
still going
on on this must be it!
down a long road
still going
another back check, shit!
short cut some did
but others
returned to check it back
through the green woods
the hashers
on on-ing limbs go whack
finally found
the trail ends
on in give me a beer!
circle around
to hashing
give me another beer!
and then we were too messed up to rhyme in meter. . .
