Football's Coming home
But not as you all know it
Eighteen Ninety Three
Universal game
Altona Dulwich Hamlet
Special bond of love
Chance meeting in snow
Hearts melt all over Europe
Magical weekend
Zines and groundhopping
Uniting our football fans
Jager und Kail-JA!
Can't draw for toffee
Poetry is from the heart
Altona engraved
Wearing a false crown
Mask modestly hides hard work
Football's chalk and cheese.
Dulwich Poet 18th July 2018
(Dulwich Hamlet Football Club have had a special pre-season tour to Hamburg, culminating in a special game against our good friends from Altona 93. One of their supporters produced a fanzine, with half a blank cover, for the occasion. The idea being that you copy it and send him your entry for an artistic competition. I can't draw, my 'art' is through my poems, so I thought I'd write some 'haiku' to scribble on the cover of mine to send him...)
