Grimlocke: the Soccer Ball
Grimlocke was given a soccer ball as a gift,
Though he didn't know what to do with it.
He is an Oracle so crystal would have been prefered,
But the stitched pentagons are like pentagrams of which he did observe.
So Grim took the soccer ball and placed it on a rotating stand,
And then opened up his doors to allow querents to come in.
With dim lights, incense and some soothing music,
He began his foretelling, open to the public.
Now he tried his very, very best,
But grass, dirt and leather seemed to daunt his quest.
And before long, people would begin to troll,
As all his readings were simply ending with the exclamation, "Goal!"
