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, Im 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!

Something rarely encountered was something to be treated with
suspicion and fear. Time has changed things to a more aware
attiitude and approach to the variety met in the human condition.
But the bully boy aptitude is to be found across the social
spectrum, more's the pity.
