Short Handball Poems

We called him kintu
He had a way with girls
He was a handball player
Kintu had a sway with words

We called him kintu
Kintu ever running after girls
Never staying with one for long
Kintu had a way with pretty girls

We called him kintu
He had a way of scoring
Never a goal target did he miss
Kintu was ever after the pretty girls...

Sitting here in an adult diaper,
‘cancer free’ I’m told. Thumbing through
a booklet of kegel exercises
for men, this.

After nine long years, in and out of
specialist offices, batting around my prostate
like a handball.

I knew it would come to this from the get-go,
but foolishly fooled myself into believing otherwise,
cause.

Even when I win I lose,
that’s just
the way it is..........

At a sports event in Europe*
Norway got a hefty fine
For their players were competing
In some shorts that crossed the line.

For the only proper bottoms 
Are bikinis, so the crowd
Gets a peek at much more tush 
Than what it seems the shorts allowed.

As the spectators were cheering,
Maybe Norway got some boos,
Since the team from Spain provided
Much more titillating views.

******
you bet
in debt

world cup
shut up

score goal
big hole

whistle
missile

fans fight
not right

refs rule
you fool

corner
warner

handball
false call

false claim
not lame

bad fan
I'd ban

play ball
don't fall

England
win land

sit tight
we might

mighty
Blighty!
