Barcelona or Madrid
Everyone plays soccer,
sorry, futbol,
and roots for their home team.
But every time
I go to a Mexican restaurant,
men from all up and down Central and South America
jump up and down at the TV
when Barcelona or Madrid is playing.
It gets serious.
Fans adorning the Madrid insignia
curse Barcelona,
and Barcelona fans hate Madrid.
But who the hell cares?
Why are Latin American men obsessed with these teams?
Just these two teams.
Is it Because Messi is Argentine?
Then why do half root against him?
Do they see Spain as a bastard mother land,
they, her children defending her split personality?
