Stopped to talk
To a wayward soul
College football
Check out the bowl
And down in Texas
Heads will roll

Excited philosopher
chases crickets
for unclear amusement
no philosophy for him
can be in a football pitch

switch bodies
with him
and play
for the patriots
I'll live it live
do my worst
to keep them
alive

it will be here
where they drink beer
jump and cheer
and you make the call
when ball hit the wall

In our house, 'tis the season for football
Cheering our teams, jeering the ref's calls
But he's not the sort
To care about sports
So my hubby gets lonely every fall!

Poor, addled Colin Kapernick
Once a coveted NFL draft pick
Made $43 million in pro football, yet finds it all unsavory
Victimized! ~ Accuses team owners of slavery

They play their home games
in the nation's capital.
The team has no name.
They were the "Redskins".
For Native Americans,
the team dropped their moniker.

October game
America’s football
An extension of cheerleaders
Happily, gleefully thrown into air
Captivating the crowd’s magic
These fluttering streamers
Landing in piles
Pompoms

The US women’s team used to dominate them all
as everybody else was watching men play football
now as everybody else values their women more
the US national team once so dominant will fall

Pel é killed the game and ate the ball
Garrincha held the ball and did bawl
coming, going what the hell
Zico played ball through smell
Bileira my cousin made rivals crawl

A crawling held a walled frame as passer-by beheld too
A football helmet and high school pennant encased against a wall
Tapestry of day shades painted wall of ledged held rolled flag.

Rob Gronkowski, known as 'the Gronk'
A football star chiseled from rock, no 'policy wonk'
At the top of his game, retired at age twenty-nine
A star who saw stars ~ concussed at least nine times

Rolling ball in a football court, passing from one to other
Fouling some with dribbling skill, bouncing well, flying slow and fast
Ball of time, oh! passing by, hit at time will celebrate best.

FOOTBALL
Players big small
Hikes holding, running with ball
in a field, park or stadium
TOUCHdown, TOUCHdown, TOUCHDOWN

Poor Mr. Colin Kaepernick
Claims America is racist, inegalitarian and sick
His professional football contract only pays him $11.4 million
Though his clear-eyed grasp of the issues makes him worth at least a billion

Memorial Day picnic by the lake, listening to the baseball game
Thanksgiving, an indoor feast, screen tuned to the football game
'I guess Thanksgiving is more important than Memorial Day'

This verse may be inane,
Male versus female brain,
Women cook food, wash skids, and do bins,
Men focus on their own dick things,
Football, porno, beer and pies,
Anything higher is a surprise!
Then they head off to sleep,
Some males do not keep!
