The crowd stood round
A crowd stood still
The crowd was watching
Doing nil
The faces names were not quite known
They stood and watched
And held their phones
The chaos inside the circle grew
The crowd yelled boo
But conflict grew
The battered boxer
Held his place
The crowd threw garbage in his face
The crowd the crowd
Anonymous faces
Getting mean
Growing fiercer
Boxer boxer
Leave the ring
Leave the crowd
The shit they bring
Boxer boxer
Left the group
Left them there
Stir in their soup
The crowd stood still
And grumbled anger
The boxer’s gone
He is a stranger
The circle tried to stay together
Crowd of people
Seeking tether
Seeking targets for their fury
Seeking someone
They could bury
The crowd stands waiting
For the next
For the one
They seek to vex
But boxer boxer
Is long gone
The crowd remains
Inside their prong
