A football match has started. Thousands of eyes, with animation, are following intently the stupid ball with the highest concentration. Nerves on the stretch - then and there - intensity of high emotions is in the air. One part is going to win at any price, another one inevitably must lose. One soccer player is playing by rules, another one is spitting to the rivals` faces,- no wonder: he is the ace of aces! The match is coming to an end. The final hooter, a score`s announced, and... the stadium, in wild spirits, is uttering a roar; and thousands of crazy fits of anger are making matchwood of the stadium door. The wild lunatic fringe, in state of wrath, warmed up with alcohol and drugs, is pouring out, into the street, with wild force of lunacy, broken loose, making meaningless destructions without any cause. Shop windows are broken, and innocent cars are beaten with a heavy hand; and on the pavement appeared spots of blood; and people in the street, agape, are paniced. It beats the band!

USA 1/13/2008 6:25:40 PM Jawad I needed the poem for a project and liked it. USA 1/13/2008 6:24:41 PM Lila This poem is not at all bad. You've managed to capture the feeling of urgency and barely controlled destructive energy of a football crowd or any crowd for that matter. I only have onebit of critic and that is the use of the verb "To Panick"you should have said-: "and the people in the street, agape, are IN panick!
