Rounds 8-10 – Haiku Bob: footy frenzy
August 10, 2020 by 1 Comment
no goals —
with this virus, what you can’t see
could kill you
masked-up —
no way to put a good face
on these defeats
pandemic —
the long queue
to kick goals against us
new testing targets —
another shot for goal
drifts wide
footy frenzy —
I fall asleep
on the couch
rising death toll —
our team starts
to flatline
isolation —
all I think about
is that Daicos goal
