Mutual

30 months, or thereabouts

Most don’t last so long

And most don’t generate

So many contradictory words


Strong bonds were made

Talk of a Wednesday family

Which resonates, yet does not mean

Quite the same to all nations


So, among this morning’s words

I find: sadness, hurt, anger

Dismay, disappointment, loyalty

Misunderstandings, dismissal


Altogether they add up to a confusion

Which does resonate, and means the same

Across all leagues, across all divisions:

Where did we lose our way


Where and when did the round ball

And the tribes of tribal supporters

Get handed over to the international money men

For their controlling stamp of disapproval
