Today's selection from the Emory Lee papers comes from the journal Echoes from Gold Mountain, produced 1978-mid-1980s at Cal State-Long Beach. It's from the poem "Pachinko Wizard" by J.K. Yamamoto. Sing along, everybody:



Ever since I was a shoonen

I played the silver booru

From Kyoto down to Nara

I must’ve played maiyoru

Each time I hit that lever

I make sambyaku doru

That tsunbo, oshi, mekura kid

Sure plays pachinko joozu
