England leads Australia
by 174 runs.
Do we really care?
When the biggest prize of three million dollars
is awarded to a teenager
for playing Fortnight
are team games still worth supporting?
Should nationalism be supported
by football teams and sports?
We don't decide territory disputes
by who's the best at footie,
but by who can afford the most weapons.
Let's settle disputes
with teenagers playing video games
and plough the weapons money
into social infrastructure.
It's just not cricket.
