Bodies and Balls, Both in the Nets

The crowd roars in excitement, in stadium, on television
In bars and in streets, oblivious to the division
Between the balls and the bodies, both in the nets
One makes the front pages, the latter a paragraph gets,
You can make money from football, so it is good
Refugees cost money, though help them we know we should,
The defence it is broken, he through, its a score!
On the coast, on the beach, or in nets, there is found one body more.

LE Aisling at Galway docks. The Irish navy are working in the Mediterranean picking up the lost and the bodies, 700 dead this year alone. The LE Eithne and LE Roisin are involved in the search and rescue.
