Two Poems from our Sports Poetry Collection

JOUST

Author:	Lee Emmett

Poem:	JOUST

	caught on the field between sir-ghostly-past and sir-fantasy-future, a heart almost deadened from earlier struggles: bride-to-be considered not really a trophy - more an abandoned trinket, or bauble for toying tournament consists of steely lances thrust from different directions, frontally first - to some extent, expected, then unawares - struck from behind, until one victor stands either totally smitten, or at the least, overcome fake suitors wrestle desultorily, neither risks overly much in the fight, barely present any desire to cast the other aside: each has only vague urge to dominate, more a display of chivalry than the blood-lust of youth bent on wedding beloved white-veiled virgin, standards are lowered for widow’s weeds - slender motivation to raise royal insignia yet bystanders clamour for a result: the triumph of fidelity or passion? crowd would like the issue settled, once and for all Knight and Knave both half-hearted: it is almost an indecent match, prize hardly worth the effort, besides, neither combatant has been shown any particular favours, virtually no indication of preference a wonder that the lack-lustre event was even organised, the contest arises only as a matter of honour - hardly a tour d’amour

The Bearburg Address

Author:	Phil Valentino

Poem:	The Bearburg Address

	One score and a year ago, the Bears won the Super Bowl. Now they have left in sheer desperation to win the Super Bowl and show the nation. Now they are in FLA to show the world they’re here to stay. Dedicated to Lovie Smith, they’re the team not to fuck with. Conceived in training camp and forged with desire, they’re the team you have to admire. Now all the teams from east and west know our Bears are the very best!! So I’m here to say with no reservation that the Bears will shit on the Colt’s expectations. Copyright 2007 Phil Valentino
