freestyle sonnet #097: THE NEED TO DISENGAGE FROM MUNDANE WORLD

Establishment of the mundane as the right path 

of responsible actions is the final lock 

on shackles that stifle free movement. Devil math 

calculates equi-facts so that human livestock 

feel as though progress through pre-designed pens is made, 

as if there was purpose or point to this stumbling 

waste of precious moments. My beard now deeply greyed 

by accumulated days, missing that rumbling 

stomach of youth, hungry for something real, not more 

distractions to help the daze be gazed away while 

dreams are razed, chasing c.r.e.a.m.'s siren song deceits for 

another hour, day, month, year... a lifelong beguile.

This internal jihad between dirtgod and white 

devil leaves me lost some days too far gone from right.

25-Man Metaphysical Roster: Liverpool F.C.

[Klopp is beautifully insane]

[25-Man Metaphysical Roster is a football dork methodology meant to establish a listing of players who have been most active for English Premier League teams in their past 100 non-friendly matches. Essentially, it is calculated by minutes played, but weighted towards most recent games. The end result is a listing of the 25 players in a team’s recent history who have had the largest hand on their metaphysical sporting trajectory. The English Premier League was chosen because it is the highest level of football played in an English speaking country, and I speak English. Also, it is what comes on TV here in the USA, where I fucking live. And yet still I should clarify I hate English, and also America. Thus maybe I hate myself. Should I not fail in maintaining my unpaid deadline, a new 25-Man Metaphysical Roster will appear on the 1st and 15th of every month.]

Again, catching up, and it’s crazy to look at this list now a few months later because I am firmly aboard the Mo Salah train. AND HE WASN’T EVEN ON THEIR METAPHYSICS MIDDLE OF OCTOBER! That’s how quickly metaphysics shifts and a club can knock on the door of Champions League famousry. Again no blurbs because I snuck this in 1984 style months later. FAKE SPORTS!
