Round 6 – Haiku Bob: no tomorrow

 

preparing

for the worst-case scenario —

we take on Hawthorn

 

 

 

 

cases surge —

we start like

there’s no tomorrow

 

 

 

 

lockdown —

the effort not to let fly

at the umps

 

 

 

 

dewy surface —

the dog licks

my bald spot

 

 

 

 

last quarter —

closing my eyes

I miss our only goal

 

 

 

 

win in lockdown —

the roar

of the fake crowd

 

 

 

 

 

ISO footy —

I mull over the win

with the dog
