the lull between goals
saturday afternoon
the full forward rips the ball
from the sky
Didak props
the way the forward line
opens up
before and after
the final siren –
Dick’s grin
Harry begins the journey
back to where he was
before the goal
low sun
Heater snares
the last beams
longer days
goals fill the lull
between goals
new moon
self-belief
creeping back
