Camp lesson number one:
never underestimate
the cunning pedagogy of a snake;
beguiling, curled to strike,
out on the long grass boundary.
Resist the inclination boy,
let it go for six and don't look back,
that long grass bites like shadows in a crack.
Tears after bedtime in a game like that:
it's just not cricket and it never was.
