Tackle
Nineties football. Chelsea game
Me and Dad. Loved it same
Both loved tackle. Different name
David Beckham, about to score
Saw his tackle, dropped my jaw
Dad shout, ‘GOAL!’, I shout ‘PHWOAR!’
'Dad, I’m gay'. Out it came
All Dad say was ‘Cut it out’
Chelsea lost, got his cane
Beat me until blood came out
Years later, though not forgot
Bully boy who never stop
Football, snap, tackle, pop
Beat the bullies, cut them out!
