LEGACY IS MIRAGE

HAMBA PHAMBILI/MOVE ON FORWARD

When the end arrives
with all the pain
we suffered
on and off the field
of playing togetherness,
and hands seeking hands
and heart seeking heart,
you are asking
what the point is
and the legacy?
Legacy is a mirage
in a game of
hide and seek
HAMBA PHAMBILI
HAMBA PHAMBILI

AHORA! AS THE WORLD(CUP)TURNS

CHILAVER,CHILAVER!
It was love in plastic envelope
marinated with mushroom and vinager
puting in your bare hands,
balancing
light and heavy
with quasi final again.
Dangerous game is so dangerous
when you play all the way in
and out
head to head or
toes to toes.
We don't leave them alone
even if they leave them
all alone.
Finally Final
ROJAS vs.ORANGES
GO ROJAS!

By the way
IS PELE STILL PELE-ING
Even when Iron Mandela is not there.
-But Shakira is.
SO?!

See you sunday afternoon of our time
whenever your time is!

FINALLY FINAL

Finally Final
in Johannesburgo.
Rojas vs.Oranges

*Of all sports
Football and Shakira
are the most creative ones!

SEMI@DURBAN

Swan sky
crawling calm on blue breeze
cloudy day in Durban,
Miami Beach
at Indian Ocean
with Soweto.
I asked you if you made it
on your trip
to Soweto.
You responded
the casino was
a state of the art complex.
There are no oiled pelican here
dying in the gulf.
There are no huricane
or tsunami.
Only Mandella left
and the world class white surfers
and rikshaws
with big orchestra of vuvuzelas.
I lamented the loss of US
_poor Landon!-
I lamented the loss of
Brazil and Ghana,
Paraguay and Maradona's
Argentina.
Now I settle down with Germany
_who is gone
with nationalmannschaft-
and Netherland,who stayed
to evaluate Spanards.

AND THE WINNER IS...

BY THE WAY,
IS PELE STILL PELE-ING?

ESPARAGUAY

Hitting the ball
on the soft wall of your chest.
Hitting the ball
on the hard pole.
Story of dizzying missed opportunities
in attacks
and counterattacks.
BYE MY PARAGUAY!

QUASI FINAL

SILAVER,SILAVER!
Argentina's futbol vs.Germany's fussbal
ARGERMANIA QUARTERFINAL
is quasi final.
Mradona's foreplay kisses
"MANO DEL DIO"
holding his huge head.
If one goal in 3 minutes,
how many in 90?
-MEDIO TIEMPO-
SILAVER,SILAVER!
Not a lost wanderer,
you show off
your silver boat.
I don't trust u
on the road
if u don't trust yourself.

A season of fog and charade

In Frosty Winter Park.

That book is over.
What was your question

POINT AND COUNTERPOINT ON THE FIELD:
She had a point
To be pure naked
I all arrived with counterpoint

SOCCER FOR GREEN REVOLUTION

Didier of South Ivory Coast said:
Let's play North for reunification.
Now in World Cup2010,South Africa
Let's play North Africa
Or just with D.C.UNITED.
After all we showed that
Soccer is for solidarity
or
Green Revolution
