England V Tunisia Poem by Douglas Scotney
England V Tunisia
The fun in an elephant-aware child's mind
on hearing that a torso is a trunk
recurs in its adult phase
in front of a forest of legged and headed
Tunisian trunks
guarding the goal against England.
That phase figures:
as our lips
move like elephant trunk tips,
with the possibility
we must come to terms,
that once we
were pachyderms.

A plainly funny write. Waving our trunks around with a beer in hand we roar like buffoons.
