Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour Then leaf subsides to leaf So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day Nothing gold can stay -robert frost-

the day sunset was won
so yesterday was the day we chose to fade away; but today is and will always be the day sunset way was won. after spending 8-540 in skool doing econs (HEAR THAT PEOPLE? ECONS I SAY) and having rehearsals, i came down for soccer with the boys at the park; and was instead shocked to find a bunch of acsi boys, led by none other than colin wolin swaggering about our pitch as if they owned it. so i got all my sunset boys and we took on the eight of them. nakata, roy, boon, kenneth, john, the liverpool uncle and i all played against the eight of them and so we started.
it was for pride; for the sunset boys taking on the acs people on home soil; taking up their challenged. so the match began; and began it did in stunning fashion, with crunching tackles flying in from the go. we passed around a lot, and i dribbled past most of their team before wasting a shot. we played on for a half hour, stringing passes together here and there, whilst they ran us ragged up and down the field until finally, the breakthrough came as i pulled away from two defenders and smashed a shot straight past their evil leader colin to score our first. it was soon followed by an outstanding run by roy, who got our second, before they pegged us back with a lucky goal. 10 minutes later, we got the ball and passed straight to boon, who stopped it and with his stronger left leg smashed a shot straight past the keeper. so we were up 3-1 when uncle came and joined them, upon which colin clipped a shot past our keeper; although i replied soon after with a run and a goal until the match was finally 6-5; our tiring defence the main reasons for the sudden influx of goals. then one of them lofted a ball towards our goal; it was headed out- sadly our moronic team mate amrit chose to head the ball such that it hit the head of his equally idiotic brother avenash (who was also in our team) and went in for an own goal. talk about teamwork. all our hard work was put to waste as we were drawn 6-6; and as uncle shouted "2 minutes!", roy got the ball and broke forward with nakata and i. roy came down the left and passed the ball; we were screaming for it; nakata stopped it and whacked it straight into the upper left hand corner, deflecting past uncle kenneth which gave us the win, a very satisfying 7-6 result against the opposition.
so we showed them who we were; and im so proud of my boys, because nobody comes to sunset way and messes with us; we play with pride and brotherhood; untouchable, branded unfuckable.
this brings to mind something that happened two years back. this group of punjabi guys thinking they were very good came and challenged us straight. they took on us sunset people, and took the lead as they passed well and tried to outplay us. soon they were up 2-0, although i clawed us back up to 2-2, we were struggling. then james (i miss you brother. see you in august.) walked into the park; james our brother and captain walked in and it was game over- the match ended 7-2 to us and they left, sad and pretending to be sick and vomiting and all. sad sods.
every week is a brilliant week in sunset, with all the friends, brothers and sisters i have in this neighbourhood. whether its dinner with grace, walking around with rachel, talking cock with the boys post game or sharing troubles with jamal, its all good, and i love all of you.
