Thinking you’re safe from it is a pipe-dream
they’re everywhere as jongleurs screaming
goal for a mandatory minute at 90 dB, even
when its so passé you can’t see the sense -
but hey, this is South America you’ll say, as
if it defends or explains anything, and does
passionately in an inimitable way, filling the
stadiums with its echoes reverberating
yearly thing where without exception prima
grandstanding’s mandatory behaviour, & in
full view of TV naturally, but luckily you see
excellent soccer, that is to say ‘association
football’ - which they play in between
