King in the Cage (a poem)

King in the Cage

Started April 8th, 2011

Finished April 20th, 2011

The whistle blows

And my team breaks

Positioning themselves

I jog alone

To the end of the field

Into the cage

A solitary monument

That I must guard

Without yield

The game is nigh

The ball; the Prize

Tossed high

The players; the Pieces

They surge forward

A wave of bodies

Crashing across the field; the Board.
