The cricket crew, not yet committed to full whites, but King Magpie is strolling & watching, a Weathercat Production moment steal.

the young
boys in white,
the cricket
crew, are
out there
on the field,
leaning
into it,
king magpie,
pride of
our domain,
is watching
from the
the oval
mark, hands
behind his
back, noting
all that white
is fine but
simply doesn’t
cut it without
a counter strike
of black he
would swipe
