AFLW Round 2 – Carlton v Collingwood: Haiku Bob – upside down
February 21, 2020 by Leave a Comment
in the outer
a girl does a handstand —
world upside down
hot start
in the crowd the scent
of hot pies
blowing a gale
a tad too much
in the kick
searching for an opening
a fly disappears
into the beer can
speccy in the outer two dogs humping
scudding clouds
we have their measure
outside
that winning feeling
daughter returns
my smile
