I’m holding steady at no idea; I would be fine with someone else using my DQ, but the moment EH makes a guess please consider this offer rescinded and proceed immediately.
I’ll take Tim’s DQ, but if I get it right, Tim gets to host the next round:
DQ: Are you Casey (The Mighty Casey), from Thayer’s Casey At The Bat?
Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright;
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in Mudville — mighty Casey has struck out.
Yes, I am Casey, the (former) star hitter of the Mudville baseball Team!
Well, I figured it had to be from a poem. ** Tim**, you’re up!
ftr, I would have considered that literature. 
Grats Prof, and Tim.
I consider it literature as well.
I, on the other hand, consider it to be poetry, not literature.
Well, we can always ask “Is it prose?”
Dammit! I used Casey as “it” in a Botticelli game on another message board not that long ago. Coulda shoulda got him.
FWIW, I’d consider it poetry and not literature. It is rhyming verse.
Good one, SCAdian!
Good one, SCAdian, that was in the perfect zone where just after learning who it was you wonder why you didn’t think of it. And congrats to Prof P, who actually earned the win on that one.
I am R.
