one - fake German beer hall in
old Coke factory
mint kombucha on tap for
ya boy the sober Dirtgod
"Go Super Eagles!
Fuck Croatia!" quietly
since there's Croats here
wait, not Croats, just assholes,
but now also Africans
a Slavic vaper
arrives; praise Allah I quit
drinking years ago
hardcore Balkan/African
culture clash - on screen and live
more loud Africans
arrive; corner kick own goal
quiets us all down
Croatia sttles into
grinding, ball hoarding, ughness
oh Victor Moses,
please save us from this hellball
in the second half
frantic African English
begging of the football gods
errant sidewalk slam
in the box allows Modric
penalty shot goal
the mood at fake beer hall has
gotten horribly somber
meandering walk
home through town, pass post-yard sale
box full of free stuff
Nigeria didn't score,
but I got a free blender
