Host

these two gals have rallied their host
upon his modishly trimmed side-whiskers.

the laughter at this sally was all it should have been,
even the host joining in, then up the far slope
he was lost at once in a host of trees.

but though his host suggested this,
Andrew refused to move his blankets.

and the crowd gave an edited applause
as the guitar strings broke and the afterparty formed.
