they fall and fall
at the feet of Cloke
autumn leaves
mid-April
the trees and the coach
turning red
autumn colour
the tattooed rover
adds his
leaves
between holding on and dropping
umpire says play-on
a goal
no one could miss
is missed
deep in the pocket
Cloke in the shine
of the dying sun
crisp autumn air
difference between the teams
clear-cut
