A sweeper
difficult for opponents to mask
not anymore
deep-lying play maker
along the skills across a pitch
why try to find additional space?
chain gang ditch
teaching, timing, tackling, passing
too many deep dives, libero
this faded position
given to the right midfielder
Rufo’s pitch, demon of energy
or electrical fairytale
quidditch potter, black water, vichy plotter
fetter-totter
Laugh, cry, fight homes & schools
& the Kar-mann’s plight
volatile cities & the native foliage
these “final girls”
mandala’s charnel screen
ever since a tree grew in brooklyn
examined by a snowflake’s stare
snow white’s cry, a blare
so let’s hop on the bong
we’re almost there
hitting the galaxies
as joke ablaze
i remember the manatees
yes
Amy, if you are not safe i’m not safe
