He is Football Crazy
This reminds me about the song my Mam used to sing
He is Football Crazy
Football-crazy men, with their constant roar,
Chasing after goals, but wanting more and more.
The shouting, the cheering, the never-ending game,
Each match a battle, but all just the same.
Their hearts beat in sync with the referee’s call,
Fighting for glory, for pride, for it all.
The crowd’s electric, the energy high,
As dreams are born and sometimes die.
I watch from the sidelines, feeling the strain,
Wondering if it’s worth all the pain.
A world of obsession, of passion, of drive,
The game’s the only thing that keeps men alive.

Five—One Grounding
Five—Locked in a perpetual battle against my failing senses and reason, I fight to survive, to get through; I am afraid of... nothingandeverythingallatonce—...—my mouth is dry, and my muscles seize up... what can I see? I can see the birdcage and birds; I can see the watercolour my beautiful wife painted many years ago and unlocked her journey into art; I can see the empty mug of tea as it sits perilously on the arm of the sofa; how many is that now? Three down, two to go; I can also see a jackdaw on the roof of our neighbour's house across the road and a bookcase of potential—Five things you can see.

Soccer and American football seem to have the same effects on viewers and players. I do know they are different sports, and I like soccer better for I can most of the skills involved at one time. Good job.
