Round 5 – Haiku Bob: second wave
second wave —
missed chances
come back to bite us
rising numbers —
our defence
leaking goals
Daicos goals —
the times I wonder
what Dad would think
quarantine —
wondering where
all our players are
border closure —
we get close
but can’t get over the line
corona —
washing my hands
of this latest defeat
2020 —
losing all hope
this will be the year
