FIFA

[billy]

i think it's $45 or $ 45

i do like the idea of the poem, it's a big thing in the sporting world and very controversial for lots of the Brazilians. at present it feels preachy instead of showing us the squalor and poverty and injustice in the barrio's and bodegas

Starving Brazilians do not pity those sporting neckties, does anyone else
grumbling stomachs and hot hips cannot sympathize. a solid line and much more of an image than the first, could this one work better if it were the first line?
Rats stacked in ghettos rats work but not really with the line above, is rats needed? can another word serve better?
displaced by impenetrable stadiums in the name of Samba. impenetrable seems out of place, make it clear if its impenetrable to some and not others.
Some children learn their letters,
they earn theirs in blood.
Familial Robin Hoods stealing for survival,
more likely to have a .45 than $.45.
Soon to peddle outside forgotten mega projects,
preying on unsuspecting glittery tourists.
