early because Belgium and
England meant nothing
Harry Kane didn't even
play, screwing up my dork shit
predicting ev'ry
game with a bunch of British
bastards I don't know
gamify your entire life -
give meaninglessness meaning
I guess Panama
versus Tunisia barely
interested me
but also I've fucked off at
work so hard the past two weeks
as American,
work before sport, and soccer's
not even real sport
you're allowed March Madness, and
of course Super Bowl worship
both those events are
more commercial than substance,
BUY YOURSELF FREEDOM
Thursday afternoon crisis
of existence for Raven
bailed so hard took two
days to catch up on tanka,
KNOCKOUT STAGE IS SET
elohel, it's already
started in dirtgod real life
but I began this
idiotic project with
promise to finish
so even if I mail it
in, shit's gonna get finished
it's actually
Saturday night; went to the
drag races today
I watched stupid Messi
and Ronaldo get beaten
but I also watched
giant American cars
roar with jacked-up strength
there's no drag racing World Cup...
oh wait, back to the soccer
Panama's best chance
at winning first World Cup game
came up one goal short
Tunisia gave Africa
little consolation though
Africa shut out
from knockout stages, meanwhile
Europe's ev'rywhere
England and Belgium hardly
tried at the end of their game
with live crowd booing,
they essentially played a
game of kick-around
ev'ry game meaningful from
this point forward - no down time
Raven Mack tanka
will remain stream of conscious,
however, fuck rules
the collected tanka is
already fifty pages
fifty pages of
World Cup tanka that like
six people have read
classic Raven Mack - perform
ridiculous obscure tasks
illegitimate
arts forever - no regard
for what makes best sense
when it comes to poetry,
I'm America's dumbest
