distant thunder
Rocca lugs his thighs
to the square
*
*
rain soaked shoes
while they dry
abusing the umps!
*
*
half moon
our defence also
sliced in half
*
*
between scudding clouds the moon and Pendlebury
*
*
half-time cigarette
a long sigh joins
the leaden sky
*
*
after heavy rain
reeling them in
goal by goal
*
*
goal from sharp angle
the roll of cheers from stand
to stand
*
*
departing rain
Presti & Harry see off thoughts
of a goal
*
*
game-saving tackle the bar door slams shut
*
