The Shepherd of a Failure

I crave attention since my skills faded out,

for sure, I’m no longer a sportsman,

but a conspiracy lover and a narcissistic model.

I once declared that capitalism is a disease,

back when football was still played with my feet;

then, after nil outcomes for my unserious game,

I pledged my allegiance to the flatness of my Earth.

I had to create a fan club, even if illusions had to be settled.

The beautiful game I now despise,

like those outsiders who can’t assimilate into our culture.

Well, beware, because I’d run with your devil’s temptations

Until you win at least one match,

and I can finally sit on the winner’s throne just once in my life.

It seems that my fate is as doomed as my career;

with no public attention and no ball left to kick,

I’ll remain the shepherd of my failed sporting pathway.
