SIR JIM

SIR JIM

for a moment
when Sir Jim
came in
to fix us
we deluded ourselves
it would be
Camelot

but turned out
much more
managed by
Mordred and Morgana
than reborn
Manchester United

still
   a key player short
and no free
bananas

no free lunches ever
as we stop-start climb
above fifteenth

we never expected you
Sir Jim to be
   thin and sparse and
tin
  man kind
of hollowed out

supposed
     to unite us all

but here you
are breaking apart, fragmenting

a team of squares and
round holes
       bits and pieces

no football logic, common
sense
      so must be

profit in it
primarily, exclusively,
in
   everything we do
