domed stadium
the sound
of unnatural things
I didn’t know
I was waiting
for that leap
autumn clarity –
Membrey
splits the middle
sunlit leaves –
each player
having their moment
chasing Daicos
all over the ground –
autumn leaves
taking out an ear pod
to hear the roar . . .
Daicos goal
dawn . . .
a touch of gloss
on the magpie’s feathers
