In Pittsburgh's South Hills
There's a transitional 'burb
Called
Castle Shannon
It lies between the
Wealthier Mount Lebanon
And poor Overbrook
I mention it here
Because Castle comes first and
Shannon is second
I suppose it could
Have been called Shannon Castle
When it was founded
In 1919
But the founders were prescient
And Castle came first
As he will today
While Shannon comes in second
It's been that way for
One hundred five years.
Which is also how many
Points UConn will score
UConn ascends to
Mount Lebanon while Shannon
Slinks to Overbrook
