Hot-Dog

There was a flash
followed by a loud bang,
silence
even the footballers froze,
somebody heard a pin drop,
all eyes were on the hot-dog hut
it had blown up,
there was a creak
as the door opened
out came the hot-dog man
with sizzled hair
and singed eyebrows
holding the till with the takings,
the jingling of coins,
a murmur, a cheer, a whistle,
play resumes.
