Springbok Fairytale 31.08.2009 Poem by Margaret Alice

Time to wave goodbye to aller Elend
apply recommendations, eat, drink, be
merry, laughing at depression, focus on
a brilliant vision I would love to explore
until distanced from the cause and can
ridicule it appropriately

Hope you focus on washing dishes and
bed without another thought in your merry
head, thank you for your trouble, may the
spicy food not make you wobble or suffer
as you dream of rugby games, boring
Boks donning toks

Winning in such an exciting way the second
world cup for flamboyantly arrogant Wallabies
needs new justification for existence, Boks are
probably too dangerous and inflict too much
pain, we need a stylish cup where elegance
is the name of the game…

Springbok fairytale reflecting on the whys
and wherefores of rugby games
