The boxing match was imminent… [NF 7:9] – Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

The boxing match was imminent…
the crowd hovered like flies
the stadium rather nice
they hoped
the boxers will slam into each other
make it a tight fight

but only one of the competitor knows
he’s a boxer, not some bullhead hero
hence didn’t know how to wave around the red cloth
he’s left everything
behind
ran
when the bull came at him like the wind

the spectators
fell back feet in the air
rammed and gored a dream into smithereens Source: The boxing match was imminent… [NF 7:9] – Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm
