I learn't my soccer on a neighbouring green
so the 50's attacking is my stylistic scene
Never watch the modern defensive passing back +fro
too negative,..too boring ..& much too slow
I dreamt of my gal Maria
and a trip to the pizzeria,
and, so, I called her up,
"Let's eat pizza and watch the World Cup".
The minute we walked through the door,
I could smell what we had in store.
I inhaled deep and slow -
garlic and oregano.
I looked past my beauty's dazzling eyes,
onto a screen of humongous size,
and heard the customers cheer
as I ordered up a beer.
Zero to zero, the clock did tick
when I saw that amazing kick,
just before the whistle blast,
and the game was over at last.
Just after that incredible shot,
my pizza came and it was hot.
I burned my mouth - Maria laughed,
and said, "that was just the first half".
I heard Mother Nature say,
"Let's play football today".
Plants versus animals - the teams were picked.
Would the flora all be licked?
The thunder and lightning of the crowd
cheered them on, sounding loud.
While the fauna moved the ball,
barking out every call,
the flora didn't make a sound...
yet they held their ground.
Unnoticed, there among us,
stood the unseen fungus.
"King Arthur, get off the couch...
and stand up straight. Don't slouch."
"Who asked you Guinivere -
gimme another beer",
said the legendary grouch.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The kickoff hangs like a question mark~
sudden death rules apply.
Fourth down, and the play clock’s ticking
while the blitz crashes in, unblinking.
A Hail Mary arcs through the frozen dark,
a spiraling gamble against the sky.
The end zone waits, arms wide or stark~
did it catch? The crowd holds its reply…
Fans and sports fanatics excited to cheer
Onyx and Carolina blue jerseys here
One man and woman sitting so near
The end zone for home team holding beer
Beers, cheers, it has been years
And we dare hope with no fear
Let Cam beat the drum an energy steer
Love my Panthers win or lose dear
Offense, out-smart
Defense, not sport
Forward motion is caught by the ref,
obviously not following the maestro.
On the line of scrimmage ready to go,
too quick with that jump from their spot.
Barrels of ambition elbows will rub,
a return for a touchdown fill my quota!
Lighting up a Jumbotron with control,
like a boss threw a perfect spiral ball.
Sitting on my hands in the nosebleeds
entranced by every move they make.
All I want is a touchdown extravaganza,
so don’t get sloppy. No interceptions.
On the road or with an at home scenario?
Never doubt the power of the 12th man.
On Super Bowl Night, there was no joy in Kansas City.
Nearly all Chiefs fans were overwhelmed with despondency.
The tight end for the team was Travis Kelce.
His face prominently displayed utter melancholy.
As the Eagles powered their way and ran up the score,
Travis looked like a little boy lost in a department store.
His teammates all appeared to be feeling the same way,
as the Eagles held up the Lombardi trophy for display.
The game played in New Orleans was over and done.
Their plane flight home could not have been a cheerful one.
The "Brotherly Shove"
also known as the "Tush Push"
works for the Eagles.
When they need some short yardage
for a first down or touchdown.
Patrick Mahomes and his boys all choked
When they went up against the Eagles, they got smoked.
The winning team in the Super Bowl earns a coveted trophy.
It's named in honor of the late Vince Lombardi.
The Kansas City team was gunning for number three.
However, that scenario was just not to be.
It was all due to Jalen Hurts and his company.
Super Bowl fifty-nine is now a part of history.
The Eagles from Philadelphia won the victory.

The habit of winning
by just one goal
one nil one nil
a defensive clean sheet
brings victory so sweet
in the frenzy of sheer enthusiasm,
an earthquake felt all over...
Superbowl win, baby!
playing out from the back
a slow sideways
- defensive form of attack
with such a premium on possession
-back&across
soccer with such goals
-loses its gloss
for fear of defeat
- brings negativity
boredom & much wasted opportunity
