Megan Rapinoe

Erren Kelly

The boyish girl
Darts across the field
As if she ran on passion
Alone, electric eyes
Charged crystal blue
Her legs are soccer legs
Balancing the ball off
Her knee
Then, with her foot
She makes the soccer
Ball do its own balletic
Dance, soccer is a
Religion in Europe
But only a nerd girls
Sport in America
With every kick, she rallies
Against tyranny and the
Status quo
Her body a political statement
Against Western beauty standards
She is ballerina and warrior
In unison
