Round 7 – Haiku Bob: miles apart
COVID-vaccine
Buckley leaves DeGoey
in the goal square
hub life—
Cats and Magpies
miles apart
Zoom meeting—
the Geelong forward line
unresponsive
Brown to Daicos—
I tell my kid
a story or two
lockdown—
a hug
for every goal
taking a breath—
he just hangs on
to a speccy
winning goal—
what is more deadly
alcohol or the virus?
