Writing and Football

Poetry, let’s me write freely, But football the one to be viewed, One I can do but the other I can’t, It’s a fact not just others being rude! The pow’r of the pen an enrichment, But so is the thrill of a goal, A poem about watching football, My int’rests combined to the whole. 90 minute escape for the football, But words can occur any time, Winning the league on the last day? Surpassed by a successful rhyme? So football the game of the masses, While poetry more of a niche? One that was for working classes, And one’s target the nouveau riche? But no they both have open access, A poem or a football game, Whatever your preference, my wish, Just hope that you’re glad that you came!
