Blood Sacrifice
The roar of the crowd
creates its own violent
poetry,
magnifying future pain
into a blood lust,
its hard edge
more than a mother could bear at times.
Its heart beats faster
as the football
is launched and won,
carried like a communion loaf,
flawlessly,
swiftly
toward redemption.
Prompt words are hard edge, beat, magnifying, football. Image by Dave Adamson on Unsplash.
