A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto

pleasant infractions


instigator winks 
a simile of lashes
like encroachment 
off-sides,
but she declines the penalty
then throws a smile in his direction,
his heart intercepts 

they both win.

Both sides score on the same play as holding is now legal and Xs and Os no longer mean positions. Nice writing Jacob.

'and now folks we got a real game on our hands'

'he may have been messin' around all season but with that last interface it looks like he's settling in for the long haul to turn this thing around. Let's just wait and see how the visitors react.'

:) nice one Jacob X

I don't watch football, so I don't really understand the metaphor, but it's a great piece nonetheless :)

long commercial...mmm....thank you, Al.

That was always my problem, I never understood the off - side rule and always fell foul of the ref. Plus being short-sighted I could never find the goal. Sweet little piece Jacob.

And all because of a smile. It's certainly a pity more people don't use the ready supply of them at their disposal.
