Robert Pettit Poet Rhyme

Kansas City Defeat

The Chiefs went to New Orleans to do a war dance.
However, they got burned by the seat of their pants.
It seems Custer at Little Big Horn had a better chance.
The team was hoping to win their third Super Bowl in a row.
Unfortunately, the fruitless effort was a no-go.
Come Monday morning, plenty of Kansas City fans felt pity.
What they saw on their screens the night before was not pretty.
The game led them to say what we too often hear:
"We will get our act together and come back next year".

Ilene Bauer February 11, 2025 at 1:08 PM great to see a poem of yours here, robert! i'm not a football fan, but i did watch and was rooting for the eagles, so i was glad to see them win. i was surprised at how uneven the game was, though... Robert Pettit February 11, 2025 at 2:35 PM The Eagles knocked them out early in order to keep the Chiefs from winning on only a field goal as they did two years ago. I thoroughly enjoyed watching every minute of the game.
