PACK. Ask Me What I Want to Be When I Grow Up and I Say

THERE IS A VIDEO RECORDING OF ME
IN THE LIVING ROOM
AT MY GRANDMA'S:
I CRAWL AROUND IN FRONT OF THE TV
AND THEN MY MOTHER COMES AND ASKS
WHAT I WANT TO BE WHEN I GROW UP
AND I SAY
Football player.

In this play no one can play football. The approach is the total pretension of the impossible: two people, four legs, one ball – WE ARE FOOTBALL PLAYERS.

…well, we play football players, we act as if, because we're not, we've never been. But we act the dream to know how it feels.

Living a life in glitter, when we're grown-up, and cannot fully remember what it was that we actually dreamed. A dream dreamed by many, silently tended or boasted about. Fragments of memory go back to a long-forgotten childhood and ask a question: WHY FOOTBALL?
