"Ring!"
The bell goes
Seconds out
He adjusts his costume
Nervous
Sweat drips into his waistband
"Ring!"
Referee
Stands aloof
Eyes fixed on the event
Ready
To intervene when needed
"Ring!"
Figures move
Strangest dance
They spar and clash with words
Duelling
They fill the time allowed
"Ring!"
Speed date ends
Couples split
To write secret scores in peace
Wait now
To see if someone liked them
