The Laws of the Game provide for a marked box within which the manager stands;
He stands at the corner, on the lines.
A field is provided for the farmer’s cattle for grazing bounded by a fence;
The herd congregates at the corner reaching through the fence for better grass.
Animals, humans, alike push the boundary;
Wishing to go into forbidden land.
Perhaps it began with Eve pushing the boundary of the Garden;
With Adam behind deflecting blame from himself.
The human condition–one pushes the boundary, pushes God;
While another places blame.
