Rough draft ....
there they stood so proud
defiant unto the crowd
they faced them down
grimly visaged
loud in voice
tattooed
arm gestures flayed
slapped knees and thighs
shot terror with their eyes
Awed by the Haka
with lashings of tongue!
opponents they stood
compete they could not
but at least they did not try to dance
the Morris Dance
in response.
never mind, they say
if it's not 'the ticket'
there is always ...
cricket!
