Fans Club Or Fans Cult?

Fans club or fans cult?
I do not know why teaming throngs celebrate 
a round leather game with heart and hurt.
Putting their brain and brawns in passion’s plate

Fans club or fans cult?
I do not know why tears and torment roll
In the center of these mansions and huts
for the loss of a team they don’t control

Fans club or fans cult?
I wonder why an unknown fan of mine
Will shout to the heavens that I hurt
His feelings just because I wrote a lovely line

Fans club or fans cult?
I wonder why a brother outside Europe’s border
Living in a lovely African haughty hut
Could commit suicide for an English club’s blunder

Fans’ club or fan’s cult?
… this is the fulfillment of a prophecy
sons and daughters encamp in passions’ pot
against their parents… without colors of courtesy

I don't know if it is a club or cult but what I do know is that this is a terrific piece of poetry.
