“O friend unseen, unborn, unknown,
Student of our sweet English tongue,
Read out my words at night, alone:

hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop
and for once our gangly starting center
boxes out his man and times his jump
perfectly, gathering the orange leather
from the air like a cherished possession”
