Referencing St. Jerome Soccer Team
GARVEY OVER TO KESSEN
Garvey over to Kessen back to Garrigan
Up to Garvey and then right round again
Triangulating down the field
With Garvey finally crossing to Marxkors
Who’d pivot like a top
As no one I’d ever seen
Or to Bowman who’d perfected flopping
To the finest of all fine arts
Who’d purloin another penalty kick
Those days though many, many years ago
Are not in fact all gone
They live today and will as long
As my memory still is strong
