The ball deflects off of the goalpost. "Oh!"
-A shout from one who never seemed a fan
Not even of the game that we both know
So much more well: he's not a cheering man.

But I too watch and flinch-and yet don't care.
The winner of the match has no import
In my mind. Nationalism can scare
Before it excites. This is not my sport.

Or is that just because I lack a side?
What he has done for baseball, surely I
Can do for this. I don't need to take pride
In any exploits, and it won't hurt my

Tentative appreciation. "Homeland"
Doesn't matter if I can understand.
