Here’s PNDP assignment #5: to go to a Wonderland youth sports game and try to tell the story of it through photos. Also, to write a poem about it. I chose the Medford High School JV soccer team, photographed a game in disgusting rain, and wrote a poem inspired by this video.
Even though
The grass is plastic
The dirt is plastic
These boys still run the old fashioned way
As peasants did in the Middle Ages
Toe first, in leather shoes
Toe first,
As the body intended
Toe first,
As they did in Athens
Barefoot
In the rain
