watch the game my friend
Andre
asks when we run into each
other on the street.
he's wearing a bright
yellow jersey
with red stripes
and stars with half moons.
we won,
two nil.
huh? i say. two nil.
what does that mean?
we won two to nothing,
we scored two
goals and they scored none.
zero,
although they had
a penalty kick,
but missed
and Pablo hurt his ankle
in the ninety-two minute
mark.
okay, but nil, what is nil?
it means
zero.
we'll why didn't you just
say that?
so they played for three
hours and only
two points
were scored?
no touchdowns at all?
goals, they're called goals,
not points,
not touchdowns.
whatever, i say.
so that's it the season is over?
we're the champs,
king of the world?
no, no.
there's still three more
months of games to go.
