Saturday at three
is when the fun really starts
Oh, yes! And the pain

n.b. A lifetime of training my body to endure watching Pompey all over England means my adrenalin and endorphins peak around 3pm on winter Saturday afternoons…what happens from there is a game.
I used to play a bit too, not at that level though.
Realising the ambiguity of the last sentence, I clarify, that I played far below the Pompey level, (although my grandma could have scored some goals that Pompey players sometimes fail to score, obviously).

Nothing could stop us
when we let the music play
danced on ’til we dropped

Snow clouds shadow day
our wordplay consumes hours
as we each other
