For One Night (with apologies to Mick Bocchino)

for one night
the apostate is welcomed back
like the prodigal son
for one night
the old become young
and the young will believe they will be forever young
for one night
twenty-two years of hurt and despair
get washed away in rivers of tears
for one night
bloggers believe they can be poets
for one night
all things become possible
for South Melbourne is alive, and
Hellas has won the Cup!

A few notes on comments.

We've had a lot of fun over the years with my freewheeling comments policy, but all good things must come to an end. Therefore I will no longer be approving comments that contain personal abuse of any sort.

Still, if your post doesn't get approved straight away, it's probably because I haven't seen it yet.

As usual, publication of a comment does not mean endorsement of its content.
