Otavio I. Zoom InA soccer ball,
Lying on the street,
Waiting for that skilled touch,
That never comes.
Walked past like a plastic bag…
Meaningless.
But look inside:
Desperation,
Relief,
Disappointment,
Pride,
Anger,
Joy,
Failure,
Glory.
Look deeper:
Football;
A Language,
A Refuge,
A Sport,
A road to Peace,
A means of Interaction,
A way to really Communicate…
Most importantly,
Worldwide.
A Soccer Ball,
Lying on the street,
Quite Meaningful,
Is it not?
