day 21 poem

gotta try n write a fucking poem

when i didnt even get to watch any of

the fucken cricket i had the radio streaming into the emerald hill library

where i was working figuring if warne made that century no one

ld complain about the noise

turned it off when he got out and

stayed glued to the wkt column ticking over

on the cricinfo ball x ball

it was shocking to watch
